I would suggest looking at other Shield Defense builds. Possibly, copy one and and adapt it to your requirements. Figure out your goals for your build, first. Something every Shield Defense Tanker should have is 45% defense to Melee, Ranged, and AoE. This can be done very easily with only Weave and Combat Jumping taken for defensive pool powers. I explained how to do this in another Shield Defense Tanker thread.
Here are some helpful suggestions for building a Shield Defense tanker, as well as builds in general:
Slot Deflection for defense bonuses. Try hard to slot it for resistance as well, but it isn't the end of the world if you run out of slots first.
Mako's Bite is not a very good set to use unless you go all the way to the 6th slot for the melee defense.
Gift of the Ancients is not a good set to use for Shield Defense.
Turn on Hasten so you can see how close you are to perma-Hasten. You generally don't need more recharge than what it takes to get perma-Hasten.
True Grit needs to be slotted for healing. Resistance bonuses should be a secondary objective on it. Two regular healing (and resistance) IOs is fine. You don't need a set bonus in every power.
Slot for Melee/Ranged/AoE defense, not Smashing/Lethal/Energy/etc... defenses. If you get to the end of your build and you only have a couple powers left that only accept sets that add typed defense, then its ok to use those if they will get you to the soft cap.
Don't slot Boxing, unless you have slots left over or are looking for a bonus that only Boxing can hold.
Gaussian's is a good set for Shield Defense, but only if you 6-slot it.
Don't slot Phalanx Fighting with more than a Luck of the Gambler +recharge, or a Kismet +to-hit. Don't increase the nearby allies counter for it either. Defense enhancements don't increase the defense given when no allies are nearby and you need to be as self-sustaining as possible on a Tanker.
Grant Cover is another power that should not be slotted for defense. It gives no benefit to you, other than some defense debuff resistance.
Conserve Power from Energy Mastery is not very useful. Between Stamina, Physical Perfection, and Miracle and Numina's uniques, you will have more endurance recovery than you need. Also, you over-slotted Stamina and Physical Perfection. I tend to not go for set bonuses in those powers because they gain very little benefit after reaching the ED cap for endurance modification.
In general, slotting for recovery set bonuses won't get you any worthwhile endurance. Slot for reaching the defense soft cap first, then slot for recharge, then HP. Any other bonuses will have little impact on your character and should not be slotted just to obtain those other bonuses.

I agree wholeheartedly with most of your suggestions, but I'm going to disagree a bit on this. Not that the OP needs CP, I agree that he/she probably won't. However, I think CP is the "lesser of two evils" when it comes to prereqs for Physical Perfection. |

Focused Accuracy is a huge end hog, and you can also replicate most its benefits with a couple of set IOs. If you're actually going to use it, it needs at least a couple of slots for end reduction. I suppose it would be useful strictly as a set mule, but since the OP has Build-Up, which can also take a Gaussian's set, it's not even needed for that.
I treat CP like Boxing, something you have to take to get something better. At least CP can be easily be left at its base slot, and who knows, it might even come in handy during an AV fight.
So my suggestion to the OP is to drop FA, and leave CP with a recharge in the base slot. (Those Hami-O's are a complete waste of influence!) I'd pick up Fault or OwtS for the empty slot.
EDIT: Oh, and be sure to pick up the Steadfast +def for 3% defense to all positions. It can be slotted in Deflection, True Grit, or Tough, though I'd recommend TG or Tough rather than Deflection.

Minor quibble here, you don't really need defense bonuses in your shields; a SD tanker is close enough to the soft cap on SO's that you can focus on other bonuses instead. I would most definitely save two slots for resistance; it provides a significant boost to S/L resistance.|

Just as an example of what the GotA set 4 slotted in all the shields will do, my BS/Shield scrapper has infinite endurance sustainability while running 9 toggles and attacking full bore. I do have the Miracle and Numina uniques but I don't have any epic pool. My SD/Fire tanker is lighter on end so I only have the Numina on him and I've yet to run my blue below 75%.
Let's see, for defense bonuses on my SD/Fire tank I have one set of Touch of Death, one set of Mako and 3 sets of Multi Strike along with the Steadfast 3% unique... that puts me over the soft cap with Combat Jumping and Weave and leaves lots of room for other bonuses not directly related to survival.

Focused Accuracy is a good spot to drop a 6-slot Gaussian's in. To-hit bonuses are completely different from accuracy, even though Mids' doesn't show it. It mostly makes a difference when fighting something that has high defense, like AVs that use Elude and other similar powers. Conserve Power may never be needed if you never run low on endurance. I guess it is mostly a play style choice if you take Conserve Power and slot your Build-Up with Gaussian's instead.|

| Agreed, but if you have the slots Grant Cover increases it's debuff resistance by the amount of defense slotted into it, so it's useful to have if you have the slots. Take care of everything else first though. |
Quote:
| I have a different approach here; on a shield character I use my shields for GotA slotting to handle all my endurance issues and use my attacks to pick up the minor additional defense needed... my SD/Fire tanker is around 46%-50% to all positions. I generally go with Pyre mastery for more damage & a ranged AOE attention-getter... therefore I solve my end issues without resorting to Physical Perfection. |
The great thing about SD tankers is how easy it is to reach their maximum defensive potential. A SD Scrapper has to devote almost all of their set bonuses just to soft cap, but a SD tanker can do it with one set bonus. That leaves the rest of their slots and powers for enhancing offense through recharge bonuses. If you choose to manage your endurance through set bonuses, you tend to miss out on recharge bonuses.

Quite so, the extra defense was mainly incidental in my slotting, not really what I was going after.|

I've put in a few recharge bonuses, as I mentioned the 4 LotG 7.5% and a few others but I wasn't really after huge recharge. I'm hardly saying that "Thou Shalt Always Build Thy Shield Tanker This Way", just that it's a way I found effective. I may well end up revising things somewhat, in fact that's a given with issue 19, and that will probably end up giving me a bit more recharge.
The bottom line with a Shield tank is you have lots of options since you don't need to devote as much effort to defense.

Yes, that's why I recommend getting the Kismet +Acc instead of Focused Accuracy. Despite the inaccurate name, it gives an additional 6% ToHit, slightly more than unslotted FA.

Made a second attempt with some of the feedback, still coming short of the softcap, though. Maybe I should drop purples for lesser sets with more AoE/Melee/Ranged defense? But that seems a bit counter-productive to be, so i'm not sure.. No doubt it's still full of allkinds of mistakes, but hopefully it's at least a little better.
I just hope it's at least a little better, and not flat out worse! Hoping to at least be able to start putting the build together in-game before the second respec comes along, just in case.
Again, much thanks in advance.

GRRRR, long, long post eaten by the logout bug!
Here's what I would do with your build; note it fully slots your toggles. By the way, it is NOT true that having purples is always better than "lesser" IOs, especially for a tank where survability is so important. I did retain most of the the purples you slotted, but they're not at all necessary for a good build.

My Characters
Knight Court--A CoH Story Complete 2/3/2012
A couple of things in addition to the build I posted:
Take Tremor and Seismic Smash at 35 and 38; Grant Cover can easily be delayed until level 41.
Also, though it doesn't show up in my version of Mid's, Health is overslotted. I'd either drop the Numina's End/Rchg and Heal/End/Rchg and use the slots elsewhere, or replace them with the Regen Tissue and Miracle uniques.
My Characters
Knight Court--A CoH Story Complete 2/3/2012
Definately way better.. I redid health and added those other two uniques like you suggested. I tried moving the skills around to take'em at the suggested levels, however whenever I did, the totals always came back lower. I even double and triple checked that I was slotting the same enhancements and placing the slots at the same levels, yet the totals were always lower after i re-arranged the skills.. Absolutely no idea why, must've overlooked something.
Not a huge deal though, so unless I'm mistaken or someone has a better idea, this will be the build I'm going with.
Thanks to everyone, and especially Finduilas for being extra patient with complete nubs.

Not a huge deal though, so unless I'm mistaken or someone has a better idea, this will be the build I'm going with. Thanks to everyone, and especially Finduilas for being extra patient with complete nubs. |
Found the difference in defense totals; it was just in Ranged defense and it was because even though my unmodded version of Mid's didn't display inherent Health (and I therefore couldn't change it) it was still counting the 6-slot Numina's Ranged defense bonus.
Here's a fix: move a slot from somewhere, (I took it from Hasten, but there are other options) and six-slot Mako's bite in place of one of the CI sets. You lose a little recharge that way, but you still have more than enough to be getting on with.

My Characters
Knight Court--A CoH Story Complete 2/3/2012
Just trying to figure out how to slot my tank, I'm incredibly clueless about it, so I know there's probably a bunch of crappy choices made in the build below, but that's why I came here before slotting things in-game!.. Power-Wise I think I'm happy with the powers I've chosen, unless there's some major, brain-meltingly terrible thing I've overlooked somewhere. If so, just let me know.
As for what I'm aiming for, I'd say my time is spent about 50% killing things with SG Mates, 35% just solo farming stuff, and 15% getting off my butt to do TF's and Raids and such. Which leaves about.. 0% PvPing. So it's important to both be able to stand there and soak up damage so my team doesn't get murderized, and also to do at least decent damage for when I'm soloing.
As for cost, I don't care if it takes me a long time, or if I'm completely broke afterwards, so long as I'm as effective as I can reasonably be.. Specially since then it'd be easier to make more money anyway.
I probably could have done more work trying to make this build better before bringing it here for expert advice, but my brain was starting to melt, so decided to just post it here and hope for the best.
Love long time in advance for any help given.
P.S. I used the unofficial I19 patch for mids, to work in the upcoming inherent fitness.
