i would chose nore power <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> you can always buy totems and drink to regain power faster alot of are skills consume a TON of power and we have wards that help block hits BUT the ward costs power .Unless you like auto attack or you mostly MT then you might want the Health ones IMO

The regens are out of combat only, so don't chose them.  Between health and power, I went with power.

<DIV>I vote for HPs.</DIV> <DIV>Reason being, later in the game once you get better armor (fabled, or maybe even rare crafted) Melee mobs barely hurt you. It is the spells that hurt more. So a higher max HP will allow you to take more nukes. It doesnt matter what if you can taunt or not if you die from 2 ice comets.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

I vote HPs but either way it doesn't matter atm. In less than a month you'll be able to change your mind anyway. Our first job is tanking and we are already at a HP disadvantage from gaurdians might as well not make it worse. the stats that matter most when tanking are HPs, Mit, Aviod and resists if you fighting a caster. ~Kymi - Avatars Of Might - ShadowKnight 51/50 ~Beta/Mistmoore <div></div>

<P>True if you are never going to tank power is the way to go.  That is what I did before I went all powe, worked out great yet I still ran out of power half way through the fights.  So i thought about it again, and came to the conclusion that in reality a few more hits is not going to make a difference in a raid.  So i went with hp for those few times that i will tank for a group or even maybe a raid.  Lucky for me i never did that respec thy gave me last time so i changed to hp.   I really see a difference when I tank having those extra hp.  I think  hp are better compared to the extra damage in a raid for which i was running out of power halfway through anyway.  As a bonus i can take AOE's better now. So i can stay and do more damage than before taking tha AOE.  Kind of negates the extra power for damage.  </P> <P> </P> <P>Just my opinion though .</P>

<P>With the new changes to our health pool, pick HP/STA at every chance you get.</P> <P></P> <HR> <DIV>As for health differences among the fighter classes, that is in place already. Yesterday's Beta update included changes to health and power pools, which rebalanced the class multipliers for everyone. For Fighters, it now goes like this:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Warriors - Highest health pool, lowest power pool</DIV> <DIV>Brawlers - Middle health pool, middle power pool</DIV> <DIV>Crusaders - Lowest health pool, highest power pool</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>(Prior to this change, Brawlers had the lowest health pools and all fighters basically had the same power pool size.)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><A href="http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=comtest&message.id=4813#M4813" target=_blank>http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=comtest&message.id=4813#M4813</A></DIV>
