Heroic Speed Boots Or Diamond Boots?!?

Hi there, I recently bought full Diamond armour. I now have 130K on me and I was wondering if I should get the Heroic Speed Boots.
I am a Tank build with my Stats being...
Str: 302
Dex: 5
Foc: 10
Vit: 298
But my Diamond armour increases my Vit and Str quite alot. Which will help me stay alive longer and kill stuff faster.
The heroic Boots will help me get to the kill faster or bosses so I can sprint there and tank even more.
So... What are your thoughts?? Thanks

First of all I wuz wordering if u have to much strwnghth to be a tank? I heard that having a lot of strength is bad for tanking since they r only meant to take damage..... And I think that as a tank u want all diamond... But I am not sure.....

Get the Meteoric upgrade boots when bossing and buy heroic speed boots when levelling... Works for me and then you don't waste gold as upgrade armour quest is soon to be released...

#1 You aren't a tank with them stats, your str should be at 100 if any? I find the 55str from the diamond set to be enough alone when tanking so I keep my stats at
Str 55
Dex 5
Focus 15
Vitality: around 620
So you most definitely need to seriously lower your strength before expecting to survive any big guys, I have 220 vit when I go dps..
But back to the question, it all actually depends on preference, I usually keep my heroic boots on for the extra bit of energy that helps out if it's a long fight and I need energy to keep refreshing protective stance and enduring guard and the +50 energy on the boots helps with that, but the diamond boots are strictly speaking better for tanking as they add resistance, vitality and armour. So just give both a go and see what works for you, either way the boots are great for running around.
Hope this helps

in normal gameplay (no boss tanking) i always use heroic boots.
30 armour more or less is not really noticeable, but 30% better speed is for sure

I'am a tank build with my stats something like
Strength: 100
Dexterity: 50
Focus: 40
Vitality: 400-500 (forgot how much)
Anyways, this build works well for me, but back to question. I prefer the Heroic Boots of speed for leveling and the Diamond boots for tanking,I alternate depending on what my purpose is.

I'm still kinda new to this tanking and dps system thing.
My stats (As of now) are:
143
105
106
133
The quartz give my stats a good boost.
But anyway, if I had to choose I'd say the Heroic. If you are already a tank then what's the use? I'm still sorta new to all this, so please don't gang up on me.

Buy the carpet and diamond boots... 70percent movement for sultans! It'll help you cruising around the ow for good bosses and you will get the str, vit and armor boost from diamond. A tank by my experiential definition is pretty much all vit! I reccomend a hybrid almost tank for solo and party leveling. Happy training! The king? Is that build effective compared to others your lvl? nvr seen a build like that! Str and vit is all a warrior needs to the best of my knowledge.
