General Tips-
Don’t be afraid to change stances during a battle, especially if you have the talent Tactical Mastery. Some special abilities are only available when you’re in a certain stance. You may find that you can help your party out tremendously by changing stances, using an ability, and then quickly changing back.
Use a one-handed weapon and a shield to increase your effectiveness at tanking. Defensive Stance has some nice abilities for shields, and is extremely helpful for tanking.
Sunder Armor helps out all melee attackers. It generates some aggro as well, so it serves two purposes for tanks.
Aggro Management-
Taunt causes a monster to focus attacks on you if it isn’t already.
Mocking Blow forces a target to fight you for 6 seconds, whether it was already or not.
Challenging Shout works like Mocking Blow, but for all nearby enemies.
Defensive Stance passively increases all threat generated. If you are tanking and must switch stances, try to quickly switch back.
