That's a hard combo.
Super Reflexes would satisfy this tanking on pure defence.
Dark Armour would be an option too it has RES and DEF to all three.
Shield Defence and Invulnerability are considerations as well.
Overall I'd say a Dark Armour tanker would probably do the job best as it has all three.
I'd vote for SR if only that the stupidly high number of defense it can get by level 22.

I would be tempted to say go SR/Dark. High defense plus a self-heal every 6ish seconds. Here's an example build:
Code:

You could level from 20 to 22 doing Tips to get the Steadfast, if you can't afford it. I frankenslotted attacks instead of going with SOs.
SR/DM or SD/DM
High defense and a self heal that doesn't require you to take Aid Self. what's not to love?
Alternatively for defense, SD/MA. Storm Kick's buff to defense will make up for SD's lower defense (compared to SR/).
For resist sets, anything /MA (that 10% def buff for 10s is pretty awesome).
SG: Guadians of Paragon - VG: Paragon's Darkness
The Usual Suspects: Fimboolvetr (Icer Tank), Tsukiyomi (Mind/Psi/Ice Dom), Smiting Dragon (Dm/Sr Scrap), Widow Mortis (NW)
Up and Comers: Ameterasu (Km/Reg Scrap), Arrhymian (Elec/Nin Stalk), TDMKII (Bot/Traps MM)
I have tanked the posi TF with all sorts of builds. There really not 1 better then the other. Yes High def is good if u have your S/L/EN/Neg up there then it will be harder for u to be hit, or like Infini said about SR/SD tanks which is positional def with Melee, range, and AoE def. Just make sure u bring purples.
I don't tank often, but according to Heraclea's guide, Dark for part one and Fire for part two.

Even more what I'm liking here is the DDR. As I recall doing this on my Claws/SR exemped down while my defenses to melee and range were up around 45%, the DDR was not (missing Evasion and Lucky puts a significant hurt on that), so cascade failure was still a concern. That won't happen to the Tanker.
