W/R build for dealing damage/tanking

I know someone who uses a W/R to farm Grenths, and they are able to deal tremendous amounts of damage, and when farming with henchies, this comes in very, very handy.

Does anyone have a build that will allow me to soak up damage and also deal tremendous amounts of damage?

Tiger's Fury
Eviscerate
Executioner's Strike
Penetrating Blow

etc... Don't use Frenzy, because you want to soak up damage. Cyclone axe + a zealous haft might be a wise choice, both for adrenaline charging and energy charging.

Heres my build, altered from my normal PvP w/r axe to remove conditions that would normally be passed back to me via plague touch:

distracting blow
disrupting chop
cleave
penetrating blow
executioner's strike
defensive stance
tigers fury
res sig

this way, I do all pure damage without conditions (the gnashers spam plague touch). Use defensive stance while going into battle/when you are taking damage, and tigers fury when you are fighting (the rest of the time).
