PLD Bonus Stats

Read thru everything. Sounds like VIT or STR doesn't matter; they're both negligible. 1. Seeing as how the parry/block tiers require so much STR, you would have to spec gear and materia to pull any bang out of STR. 2. VIT would help you live thru something that can blast you for 4K HP or more. Wondering if any endgame bosses have that kind of an attack.... but the extra HP is minimal compared to what gear/materia gives. Most HP i've seen from a darklight geared Curtana PLD full VIT spec'ed is 4500 - 5k. Do PLD's get more HP than that?

I'm at 5500HP in PT. Titan mountain busters for 3500+dmg if I dont have cooldowns popped, it's also followed up with an 1k dmg auto attack. I get my Curtana +1 today so I think i'll push 5600+ soon.

Edit: After completing turn 1 of the coil last night there is no doubt in my mind that stacking as much VIT as possible is the way to go. That snake hits HARD. I went into the fight with 5700+HP and needed every single hit point.

But isn't the Coils actually supposed to be later stuff? I read somewhere that before the Coils there is another tier that got pushed back to path 2.1, so everyone doing Coils now is doing it severely undergeared (skipping one tier completely). If that's the case, shouldn't 30VIT be easily taken care of by one tier of gear?
