Advice on playing as a DK Orc Tank

Starpryme

I'm playing as a level 43 DK Orc, and I've been using a two-handed weapons but I've just really wanted to wield a sword & shield and tank for dungeons.

As of right now I have sword & shield, full slots of heavy armor, and for my active abilities I have:
- Dark Talons > Burning Talons
- Puncture
- Searing Strike > Unstable Flame
- Spiked Armor > Volatile Armor
- Dragon Blood > Green Dragon Blood
and my ultimate is Magma Armor

I'm still trying to increase my sword & shield skill because I could benefit from some of the passives. I seem to survive most of my encounters when soloing which seems to be a good sign including the guild & main quest.

Anyone have any solid advice or tips so I can confidently go into a dungeon and tank?

    I don't think there is a definitive skill setup. You will probably need to switch skills around depending on party composition and boss fight. Your current set is fine but Volatile armor may be obsolete because with full heavy armor you should be at armor softcap already. The normal dungeons shouldn't be much trouble but the vet ones may take some time to master.
