Don't think that because you are part of the "High-Council" you are smarter than us "others"...For UW you really need plenty of defensive stances....that's all...but doesn't matter we aren't talking UW tanking but GENERAL tanking...btw trying to find other builds...

Yeah I forgot, if I don't fit the mold, then my build is useless. Even if it outperforms yours. Jackass.

Well youre right..tanks aren't damage dealers
BUT...
If a tank uses swords and does a sever artery + gash combo the target will suffer from bleeding and deep wound.So thats -3 health regen and 20% health off.And 20%off is a MAJOR amount of damage!

aftershock also deals massive damage+earthshaker the enemys are knocked down.
I think hammer warrior is the best tank, but i´m not sure so i´m trying at the moment

sword or axe warriors should bring whirlwind

i think tanks are underestimated cuz of the classic UW and/or quest item carrying tanks who doesnt do more than stance after stance.

my Tanking build is for my W/Me

Physical Resistance
Elemental Resistance {Can Be Changed to Mantra of Frost if you have a ranger with winter}
Bonnetis Defense
Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Watch Yourself
Hundred Blades {ELITE}
Galrath Slash

Attribute points!
Sword 10
Tactics 10+1
Inspiration 11
this build woks on increasing you armour by a massive amount but while still retaining the ability to do defensive damage and to charge up adrenaline quickly with Hundred Blades

161 armour vs Elemental
171 armour vs Physical

Im one of the few people that dont use a W/Mo for tanking but i find this works much better than been able to heal yourself as you take next to no damage from Physical damage and if you do have a ranger with winter elemental damge is reduced by 47% and you regain 1 energy.
it also helps to have a zelous sword as when you use Hundred Blades you mana will increase too
