I messaged @Woeler
For Sanctum on Manticore, I ran with a group last night (my first run ever, their third attempt) as off tank, and everyone, including the main tank, said I needed to focus more on dodge rolling over blocking, yet I kept getting one shotted by either the boss in the hole or manticore (the punch). With buffs I can get both my spell and physical resistance about 1k from cap, w/o buffs the are 27.5k and 26k respectively - Running Blood Spawn, Tava's and Footman. I have considered switching to Histbark and Footman for this trial if anyone thinks it would be better. My main question is - should I be able to basically stand there and block through anything (with good enough healers)?
I watch vet 14 videos from PC and the tanks - off and main - just stand there and block. Obviously applying buffs and taunts as needed.
ANY input would be wonderful.

✭✭✭You should be able to stand in his frontal attack and block it. Also since you're a DK(according to your signature?) you could be using Magma armor ulti if you're struggling there. I know a DK tank who can tank downstairs boss without a healer so it's definitely doable
