We don't have much highbie offtank expparties running around, why?!
Maybe cause you can't really rock as much as that classic mage/tank/healer
combo, basically cause you can't keep that high rates up and it's hard to
kill monsters big enough. Every now and then you will also run to some nasty
resister mob which blocks the way further and you can't really do anything
about it. Also in eqparties, even most toughest nomad tanks aint very
respected cause they cant do any damage/prot. The thing they are good for
is leading.

How about changing the most useless stat in game, yes I am talking about STR,
so that with HIGH strengths you are just ignoring monster physsress. Yes I
am talking about nomads with nice str, that would make the trick.
Then highbies might consider doing offtank combo for exp instead the magestuff
and in eqparties tanks migth even start carrying a weapon instead of 2
shields!

Yes this is an uptune what I am asking and I am greedy bastard who can't think
at all, but... This would not affect lowlevel players at all, they would be as
good as they are now and even religious offtanks would not be fucked with this
tune. Currently high level tanks are hybrids, which is ok but I'd like to see
tanks that rely solely on melee damage made worthwhile option. Thank you.
