Invulnerability/Dark Melee - ridiculous survivability, good ST damage, weak (but serviceable) AoE damage, possibly the toughest non-granite tanker you'll find.
Electric Armor/Stone Melee - some of the best set<->set synergy you'll find, mitigation/ST damage/slow/endurance heavy secondary, solid resistance based primary with end recovery/+recharge/damage aura
Fiery Armor/Electric Melee - combines Burn with Lightning Rod to provide stupid AoE capability, then adds Blazing Aura and Fiery Embrace to make it more awesome, not a challenger for toughest, but definitely better than most for destroying enemies
They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!
@Starflier
Inv/SS is always a blast. Built right in the endgame, they're some of the toughest tanks extant and can spend vast tracts of time nearly capping their own damage output.

invun/ titan,fire,SS even elec....
i like invun....
unless you want a farm tank so
fire fire in a fire farm in AE
thank you for the suggestions ill have to try them out to see which one i liek better and i will have to admit i chose elec melee for the lightning rod ability it sounded cool lol also because i'm usually a fan of elec powers

Sounds like you've made a good choice, but this just made me want to mention that Shield Defense has the power Shield Charge that works similarly to Lightning Rod. I know, for a while, Shield/Electric combos were all the rage for two teleporting AoE attacks!|

Still, Fire sounds like a good combo for consistent damage too.
I'm not much of a numbers guy though... I tend to just come up with character ideas and trust (hope) that the game makes those combinations fun. Fortunately, this game is pretty great about any and all powersets being good enough!

yeah honestly the numbers don't really matter as much to me as long as it can solo or tank a bit and its fun idc that much about the numbers
So ever since i played the black dwarf as a war shade Ive been wanting to make a tank because it was fun being able to take a beating and smash thigns in the face i recently started a fire/elec tank only level 3 though but i was wondering what you guys think is a fun tank build ? (and i don't mean like power choices for fire elec i mean like all around what primary and secondary do you guys find fun.) also if i posted in the wrong section sorry about that kinda new to the forums pretty much second post and i didn't know where to post it :P
