I'm not sure why you wouldn't want to melee as a Taru. Drk MB, Monk backflip, Ninja superior wheel spam (seen them going for over 100 in CN). Everything else is hilarious, just not as much. STR is expensive and a premium, but frankly still plays a very minor role. It's the only thing not being dropped on you from bards, cors, etc. But it's still the least significant among those stats. Same equipment, your damage is down... 4... 5 from an elvaan on HNMs? Maybe you work in the sick level 62 RSE as the best item, and its instead down 2-3? Elvaan should experience significant gains in meripos or whatever.
It must be the HP.
You're HPcist.
Totally HPcist.
I remember being a TaruTaru PLD, and scaring everyone, especially on the spider sickle slash.
HPCist. Motion carries. I'm a taru drg, still tweaking in my numbers and so far have managed a 3206 pentathrust on meripo birds. Plus the only race that dodges more hell dives than taru is mithra. Sure, the hp does make it a bit scarier to rely on healing breath, but it also means I barely have to gear to get to full hp with one healing breath. Also, my lovely stack of mp means I can healing breath like mad and not worry about it.
