Are you sure you got the power order right?

You couldnt of started much that there is to tanking till 16 and even then you got held, immobilised, disorientated etc till lvl 20 as well unless you had an empath always with you who took clearmind from lvl 8 but still you got knocked about unable to stand still for debuffs or toffee within some groups till when finally you get rooted to make swift finally have a real point in being. After 20 your saying i can tank now and at 24 go for the idea of taunting more than 10 unless...

its a respec build right?

The slotting of earths embrace isnt bad if your perma granite or your healer is that good with something like absorb pain.

Well the build is untankerlike in its pre 20 levelling imo but now id suggest changing the secondary effect durations in the attacks to recharge now, the secondary effect duration wont be as of value as a recharge especially whilst in granite. In dps terms recharge is almost the same as a damage slot in some cases 3 recharge 3 damage is better damage over time than what (if ED hadnt happened) 6 damage slots would of been plus you gauntlet more but not if you miss so acc is handy and not if you run out of end so end slots in attacks is handy although more so if you had little resist to end drain.

lol shannon i'm doing night at moment whilst trying to get my head round slotting my tank. The enhancements don't add up for lvl32...i took examples from other peoples builds to make this one so the amount of enhancements are there from final lvl50 build. The powers are ones i have so far not it real accurate order as i am not sat infront of my computer...this is the works one.
As for your comments...thank you...i am in perma granite...when my hasten eventually has 3 recharge in it
Are u saying that my attacks should be 3 damage 3 recharge?

They could in fact be purely cos u slotted them that way but many people like myself prefer an acc at least because missing can be painful in many ways and if you find yourself requiring to produce more attack chains then also a end slot, i am inclined to 1 acc 1 end 2 dam 2 rechg and for example end isnt an issue in teams then slot for whatever is an issue. i must admit the build did look weird. Nice enough slotting, right powers but picked at the wrong time. Its upto 32 so i didnt say anything about the taunt not being able to hold attention of an AV too well later on without some additional duration slotting whilst your in granite.
