what to focus on while lvling a WP/SS tank

Fairly straight forward... I'm not looking for someone to make me a build but I'm not sure what I should focus on first...

At lvl 10 I have High Pain Tolerance and Mind Over Body for WP and Jab, Punch and Haymaker from SS. Also I have combat Jumping and plan to take Super Jump... is Acrobatics worth taking as well since I'll already have two reqs?

Should I focus more on defense or offense while slotting? or does it really even matter while lvling? I made him so long ago that he has a free respec and figure if I've done anything wrong now's a good time to fix it lol.

Acrobatics is not worth taking.

What to focus on...depends on your play. If you strictly team...slot for defense. If you strictly solo...slot for offense.
I try to balance it.

Sidenote: I would have picked Rise to the Challenge as soon as it was available and I would have picked up Indomitable Will at level 10.

Maybe I'll try to respec as such when I get home... I just wanted to take as much offensive stuff as I could earlier so I could still feel like I was able to solo without it taking 4 minutes to kill a mob lol.

Yeah I always take Jab, Punch and Haymaker ASAP.
I normally put 3 to 4 slots in Punch and 4 in Haymaker ASAP so they do respectable damage. I leave Jab alone until later on...around levels 25 to 30.
