Tanking - Mag or Stam?

Travy_2Hype

As of lately I've been rethinking my Tank and looking to get other's feedback.

I currently have an Orc Dragonknight and keep teetering between Magicka or Stamina build.
I currently run Magicka and do great in Solo PvE as well as running Vet Dungeons.
I'm looking to start getting more into Trials and I'm not sure what build would be best for doing so.

Feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Don't necessarily need an entire guide on the builds. Just need to know which is better of the two and why.

Stam, you need to be able to maintain block and taunt.

Either works fine, but Orc lends itself more to stamina. But I used to run my orc as a magicka tank and she had no problems, so if you prefer magicka, stick with it.

I love my saptank

I have 34k magica, 32k health and 20k stam.

Tanking is about how well you can create stamina. I can tank every dungeon without a shards or repentance with 20k stam.

Magica is a lot more fun.

I'm running a DK tank too and recently moved from magicka to stamina, I'm not min/maxing though with 3 stat glyphs on my armor. With 25k stamina it's enough to block, taunt and debuff trial bosses, ~18k magicka for self/group support and ranged taunt and 31k health to avoid being one-shot when not blocking.

before I moved points from magicka into stamina it was easier to support the group with chains and talons but long fights are way easier now with the larger stamina pool.

Since my primary role is holding aggro from the biggest threats it is convenient to be self supporting, no need for the healer to run repentence or shards for me (although I would grab them when I'm able too). With healers throwing orbs or using elemental drain I can use the extra magicka to provide crowd control but that is not my primary goal.
