[WE] Tanky Build ??

Greetings All !

Three of my friends and I are currently trying out WE's. We're in our mid level-20's now.

I've been reading through this section of the forums on the various WE builds. And I'm finding occasional references to a "tanky" build.

Can anybody give me more info on that? Like an RoR builder example? Some info on what renown, talis, pots, and gear to run with it?
Granted, I know most of the info / builder builds that people post are for lvl 40 / 60+. But I'd be curious on not only seeing such a "high level goal build" but also maybe talk about "working towards that" by running a "sub-40 version" of it. (Yeah, I know, respecs are free, but I'd like to experiment a bit with play style using such a build while I'm still low level.)

Right now, my friends and I are all running-up the Treachery Tree, just to get that 3 second KD skill. So, once we reach that (and a few of us already have)... I'm sure we'll all start thinking about mixing things up / diversifying ourselves a bit, maybe playing off of each other's play-styles / strengths / weaknesses. And I'm thinking it might be good to have one of us run a tankier build.

(We typically do RvR and a few SCs together. Usually, we don't do PVE. Tried a bit over the past week or so, but then the PQ's all broke and I got pissed that I couldn't get the Mayhem set. <grin!>)

Thanks!

I am so envy you WEs - you have excellent non-physical damage tree something WHs don't have. In my opinion Witchbrew build is the nastiest for all my different toons.

Soldude,

I just NOW noticed you comment there. : I've heard that wound talismans would be better to take than toughness ???

This is 1v1 against melee/tank spec. Ofc this won´t work against anythin that is healing or being healed...but i agree that bis WE should go offensive anyhow.

it must be fun to die from a couple of dots with solo roam? ;)
I don't see any problems with using multiple equip options
