1H/warlock is IMO the funniest build of sro, you need quick fingers and lots of vigors

1 handed sword with cleric subclass is the best tank.

2 handed sword can own in pvp and tank something with cleric/warlock sub.

Duel Axe with cleric/bard/warlock is good and nice looking build with medium dmg.

1H is the ideal party tank. Highest defense due to the shield.

Alright so a 1handed sword is the best tank.
But out of the remaining two *2handed sword or duel axe* which one is the worst for tanking?

1 handed/cleric is the better tanker because you have a shield(you always need a goot br)
that really helps with your defence

If you're talking about solo grind, I'd say Dual Axe is the worst.
2H can do better because of the high damage, KB and KD skills.

If you're talking about party grind, I'd say 2H Sword is the worst.
2H have too many skills that KB even if you choose not to use the KD one. And KBing a huge mob with wizards nuking = no-no. :)

My opinions.

IMO, nothing can tank better than a 1h/warlock build.

20k hp, 13xxphy defense in robe and 16xx mag defense...

able to stun with sprint assault, daze, and wrath daze. Has sleep and group sleep. Total spam 80% effective kb with shield. A life leech skill, and the ability to make your oponents do shit damage with impotent. If all that isnt enough, an extra 9k hp buff, and super defense with the warrior buffs for 45 seconds.

tanking as in TAKING damage then it should be a 1hand/cleric.
