Does anybody know good armors for tanking and I think the weapon should be in the troika line maybe. In other games I have played tank so I am wondering if there are good armors for this out there.

There are no healers, and no aggro tables. If you try to tank, everyone will wonder what you're doing and then laugh. This game isn't World of Warcraft-- it plays more like Phantasy Star Online or Legend of Zelda: the best defense is "get out of the way!"

Still, for teir one levels, i guess the plate armor would be tank-ish, becuase of the defense and hp, and the fact thad it decreases your attack speed. It only blocks normal damage though, no shadow, elemental, or peircing. Of course, in teir 1 enemies only realy do normal damage. An autogun might come in handy if you don't care about speed.

If you're trying to soak up

If you're trying to soak up damage, you're doing it wrong. Dodge and block (shield).

Everybody's DPS in this game... whether with swords, guns, bombs, or a combination.

The only reason not to be doing DPS is to distract/bait mobs... and still, that should be done with dodging and blocking, not eating damage.
