    I hold up better than many of the LA Venos I know.
    Good for you.
    There are situations when the Veno needs to tank. I do that often to save a cleric or mage from getting killed in a dungeon.
    Even though LA has good survival, i'm not Heman so i let my herc or whatever pet do this job.

    I never said I go looking to tank things on my chara. I said that I am able to in those circumstances, as I normally do that.

    If I may, this implies you're refining weapons to gain HP?

    You don't get HP by refining weapons. You also don't need as much HP if you have good defense. What are people thinking defense is for anyway?
    As someone stated (it's be stated by several people actually) is:
    VIT is a poor man's refine.

    The poor stay poor.
    I DO notice a reduction in my healing power, and I've always known that my magic numbers are not as high as a veno who doesn't stat vit. But it's cheaper for me this way, and makes it easier to run TTs, etc, without having to worry about refining gear/paying a lot for it in order to survive AOEs.

    Venos are capable of obtaining most of their own gears, that is IF they have the mag to keep their Herc alive. Mirages are also bountiful for venos to refine with. I've soloed some AoE bosses with my alt Wiz as a healer (wiz makes a poor cleric). Earn up to 5x as much soloing in near same amount of time, and refines / imbues aren't a problem.
