Hello, first off, I hope I remembered your accounts name right and character.
Secondly, welcome to City of Heroes, was nice meeting you in game today, and I hope you stay for a long time, its a great game that I found four and a half years ago, and have been playing it ever since.
Now, I know that theirs a lot to take in when you first start, and if you had a forum accout I would PM this to you, but as we were talking I thought it would be easier to do it this way. Its just a skeleton of a build I have done, using just Single Origin Enhancments, the cheap ones obtainable from vendors in the game. There is lots of guides on IO'ing out tanks on the Forums, and everyone thinks differant. But hopefully this will give you an idea of power selection etc. This is the basic build for my Teaming tank without IO's that I had. It did its job very admirably without any fancy enhancemnts, and can solo and team very well.
Anyway, it's just to give you an idea of how to build a WP/SS tank, don't take it as gospel, and never feel obligated to pick any of the powers in any order I have put down. It worked for me, but might not work for you. Taunt for example, you will find some lengthy threads on, I found that most hero TFs didn't need it myself, but in the 45+ game found it to be of benefit on the tank as its taunt aura is the weakest in the tanking work.
I will leave you to find out the wonderful world of IO's at your own pace, but never be afraid to ask on the forums if your stuck.
