I'm fairly new to eso and was wondering what is a good tank build for dungeons?

    @captain_chuck Google Deltia games. I'm using his Dragonknight Tank guide as reference.
    I just started trying it too, seems OK. Just get the best gear you can that matches the spirit of what build is trying to accomplish and you'll be fine ( gearwise).

    Tanking requires you to grab aggro of mobs and bosses, debuff them and all the while do some dmg! You gotta be quick on the block, use mobility and positioning to reduce dmg all the while sustain your resources and be mindful of mechanics!

    All this is probally obvious, but does take some practice! Guides are great but you have to adapt these guides to YOUR playstyle.... So, asking for a build is kinda broad, get good at the basics and build a build that suits you...

    Good luck :) I have a near max lvl tank and im still learning and trying different strategies and rotations.... I guess that's what keeps it fun to me, but by all means use online guides as a resource... These guys have a lot of knowledge to share....

    Before you tank, watch this. Yes, it is for end game tanking, and you can get away with a tank that just stays alive, draw's aggro and blocks, but you want to be a good tank the helps the group, see this

    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.
