Better idea: Find the threads on W/R or W/N warriors designed to solo grenthg's footprint and SF, and run that as a SF tank. Ever since the gear/keg trick was killed, there is no reason to waste your potential damage by bringing a bar full of stances.

I like the idea of using Mel's Reslience, since the majoirty of damage will come from degen, not weapon attacks, since a warrior with 100+20+dolyak+Bond+Barrier will take little if any damage from attacks. Why bother dodging 75% of attacks that hardly hurt you anyway?
