TG or EG (in General)

which one is better for tank?
+18 TG is 2.9mil nw but +14EG is 4mil NW
There is no question that EG is better for toa tank but for normal tank? the xp i save from training st can put in dx wouldnt that make it better??

I would prefer to use the Tulkas and train the extra experience into Dex, thats my $.02

EGs are not necessarily better for TOA tank... they only improve natural DX. The xp you save from training dx and skill make EG far superior to TG for all but TOA tanks possibly and walls.

that's a question simply answered by the type of tank you're making,
heavy/mage killer - Tulks

light/evasion based tank killer..

With the TOA, most TOA tanks do not train Str but do train Dex.

Also, items that increase your dex, increase your skills. With a TOA giving a massive boost to your str, your BL (or archery if you insist on using that skill) is high enough where EG's would save a lot of xp.

If you are using a non TOA tank, then TG's are a possiblity but I still would recommend EG over TG due to the fact your getting a Dex and skill boost with the EG vs a str only boost from the TG. If your keeping your Str and Dex about the same, then youll save quite a bit more xp from getting your skill and Dex boosted vs just your Str. Xp that can go to HP. The difference in AC is quite minimal as to the xp you put into HP more than offsets that difference.

If your using a wall, then of course you want the AC the TG gives.

so what you saying is even at same nw they gonna have 6% difference but EG still save more xp than TG??
