Tank Champion Points

So I recently made an Imperial Dragonknight and I'm planning to turn her into a tank for mostly PvE. I have about 127 champion points (I have only 3 characters: a vet 16 templar healer, level 20 nightblade dps, and her). Here I am just staring blankly at the passives list thinking how in the world do I effectively distribute my champion points? There are so many passives that seem extremely crucial for a tank like Block Expertise, Spell Shield, Elemental Defender, and like 5 other passives (this is literally just from The Warrior section alone), but how do I distribute my champion points to be an effective Imperial DK tank? I don't want to make my champion points too widespread so that the boosts might seem lackluster. Is there anything I should prioritize?

    Block expertise is a MUST,

    Increased healing from heals is also a must,

    From the reds, it's block expertise and elemental defender which are the most important. (And some points in the one that gives you more heals from any source)

    But... Are you gona be a stamina or magicka tank? That's pretty important information, you know.

    I'm going for a stamina tank, since I'm an Imperial.

    Meh.

    Tanked everything in 5PC Ashen Grip, 35 Spell/30 Phys resistance and 0 points in Block Expertise with little issue.

    They are multiple, multiple ways to boost your mitigation to near the cap. BTW train up bow. I would say roughly half of the solo/no-adds bosses need to actually be S&B'd. I cringe every time I see a tank walk up to Praxin to facetank his pink sprinkler attack.

    When I made this build I had about twice as many champ points as you have but the general idea of what you can do is in there. Like king said there are tons of ways you can do champ points and build so take my link as inspiration for what you want to do and not something to copy paste. While block expertise is not a must I do highly recommend it, as well as the other passives I have into the warrior, such as Hardy, Elemental Defender and Thick Skinned. Those are all great defensive passive that even DPS's and Healers spend points into. Then on the Thief, put points into managing what ever resource is most important for your build, but give some to the other as well. My build is for a dunmer but it is most effective as a Imperial so have a look a that as well if you want and see if you can as I said get some inspiration from it for your own set up.
