Tyrant with +4str -4 Con dye

Player Questions Started Last reply 2 posts
hello ya'll,

I have a question for experienced tyrant amoung us, i have added a lil' background story, if you hate reading a lot skip this part and go to the question:)

Background story:
i've been playing an alt Tyrant lately and the more i'm playing him i love him more and more. Nice moves a lot of specials and so on. And he can do lotsa damage with some nice combo of attacks.
I just hate the low p.def on him. Good thing the massive HP makes up for it.
At first i was thinking about +4 str -4con in my mid level 30's.
But now im finally level 40 and i wear plated leather. The extra p.attack with the +4 isn't that very much so far only about 50 or so. But with only 1 con loss the hp isn't that much either so i think it's a good trade. But now im really doubting the -4 con. The low p.def isn't that nice but at least i can stand a while with that massive HP. But if i gimp my con I don't have that much HP left.

The question:
Did any tyrants gimp their str for con and was it good for them?

Note: please leave out the heavy/light armor or the +dex dyes discussion ^^

thx in advance for the advice
It depends how you hunt. If you solo without buffs a lot, its a bad idea, it reduces your ogre totem heal, not a good thing as you'll need it with plated leather's low pdef.

If you have a 2-box with VR or often hunt with an SE/WC then its not as big a deal. You'll get more hp back from VR. My tyrant is lvl 55 and still in c-grade. He has plated leather (-1 Con), +4 Str -4 Con, and +4 Dex -4 Con. So that's -9 Con, and he duos very well with a WC 2-box.

In groups, go for the damage. Your Con is good enough that stun isn't a huge problem, even at -5. In PvP, I'm no expert, but high Con is more important than high damage as you'll rely on your specials to win. So the answer depends on how you play.
