Beekeepers + Plague Doctor on a Templar tank?

A friend of mine is sick of playing the dps role and feels like all the most viable rotations are too stressful. She wants to switch to support, and we were wondering how to help make her sturdier as a pve tank, which she finds fun enough. So would these two gear sets be a good start? Should we switch one for Green Pact? What monster set would be a good companion piece?

Just asking for some general opinions before we start farming. She's got a few pieces of each and likes the set bonuses, but I dunno how viable health recovery is for bosses and whatnot.

    Tanks typically want to actually help thier group rather than just surviving.Mechanics seem to either be easily survivable with 35 000 hp or one shot you if you don't block. So having a million health doesn't really do anything.

    Ebon armor is the health set tanks use because it gives health to your allies.

    Perhaps Ebon + Torugs (stronger crushing enchantment) or Ebon + Akaviri Dragongaurd (more warhorns).

    I have heard of people going Ebon and Plauge doctor but you basically don't do anything but taunt and sit there.

    I have a really odd set up based on mag regen rather than Health then I just cast a lot of shields to stay alive. There are also stamina templar tanks but I don't know about them.

    A good starter set up is Torug's Pact (Crusher Enchant) + Ebon + Bloodspawn.

    It provides an easy debuff with Torug's (no need to run MoL for Alkosh gear), a constant group buff with Ebon and excellent ultimate generation with Bloodspawn.
