    WAR skill points

    Im playing as a WAR lv 44 n I have tons of skill points that I havent used because Im not sure if should evenly split between VIT and STR or just STR or just VIT cuz warriors are a different type of tank. Any suggestions?

    Personally went full STR to slightly improve self-healing, but many end-game WARs seem to have trouble surviving spike damage in late end-game (Titan HM and Coil), in such places VIT might be worth more than STR just to have an extra buffer of health to help survive extreme damage spikes.

    If you are in no hurry to tank that kind of end-game content though, then you'll be more than fine going full STR. There's nothing you can't survive just fine with the base HP pool before (it's only at Titan HM where things start getting hairy), and the extra damage/enmity/healing/parry is really useful.

    It depends.

    Whenever you're being attacked, do you prefer healing yourself or letting others heal you?

    + STR will increase your damage output. This affects the enmity levels you are able to reach and the amount of self-healing you can do. It also contributes a little to your group's kill speed.
    + VIT will increase your overall health pool. This affects the amount of spike damage you can take and the amount other players can heal you for.

    Stacking VIT is a viable option for both PLDs and WARs. Because a Higher Health Pool obviously means that they can take bigger hits from enemies.
    However because of (i) their self-healing abilities and (ii) their regularly-used weaponskill cycles pulling less enmity than a PLD at endgame, stacking STR is also a viable option for a WAR.

    so maybe i should split them evenly? sounds like both of them are needed.
