I would like suggestions for an epic level tank character.  Either melee tank, or caster tank.  A link to the exact build would be great.

I'd like something that I can use to tank in EE.

Pal 12 Wiz 6 Rog 2 (or Monk 2 if you don't care about trapping)

- sacred defender
- invis, blur and displacement SLAs (AM)
- shield (+10PRR) and mage armor (+10% AC) SLAs (EK)
- able to evasion when switching to light/no armor (sometimes it's better to have evasion than high AC/PRR/DR)

I have one and it's great. I wanted something that could take damage while still having some versatility for other things (UMD, trapping, buffing and healing others)

I went with human for the extra healamp.

I have had alot of experience building EE tanks. ATM my favorite are dwarf tanks for the enhancement to apply Con for dmg as well as Con applies to HP. Dwarfs get the most HP. ATM my best tank build was 12 druid, 6 ftr, 2 monk.. lv28 maxed out at just under 3500HP, non buffed con was 88, AC un boosted or buffed was 150's Prr unbuffed was 207, 28% dodge, 68 DR and all saves was over 60 except WILL which was in the 50's. Self heals, Intim 88, and was only on 4th life when I made this. This might be my main end build after I finish completion on that toon.
Cool

i see lotsa people do divine tanks lately on cannith.
With top end wyrm peaks gear they do stupidly well and just refuse to die.
Template is 12 soul or cleric 6 palie 2 monk or fighter.
race human or pdk.
Cha based usualy, can also play with energy burst for aoe agrro if you go char pdk based option.
I dont like em personally but they are ok.
Had a dude named heystack or smthn survive red alert (that he pulled ofcourse in  a INVSI TRACKER RUN) til he came to me so i coul hold burst all that shit. Also he managed to get couple kills on the way.
I was highly impresed

I miss them badly. We've lost ~90% of EE pugs on Wayfinder with them leaving. Noone left for me to pike along.

Yes yes looks like him.
He is ok and not bad.
As said i was highly impresed when i saw him in red and in mid of mobs and not die.
First i though it was a idiot for pulling red and not invis in ee but i figured he just cant die and doesnt give a fk for alert.
Didnt die in any quest and i rly liked in wgu when he pulled all trash he could find on start of ramp where i put crap load cc so whole group could beat the cr.. out of it.
Was higly effective.
Im rarely impresed by ac hp toons but he did the job right.
Would group again when i get freaking cast of my hand and level over a bit more into epic levels.
