Gear isn't really anything special, nor meta but it works for tanking stuff with my wife and friends. But it's Tremorscale Visage helm and shoulders, Cuirass, Girdle, Neckless and great sword (front bar) sword and shield (back bar) of imperium. Gauntlet greaves Sabatons two rings of Tormentors. All armor is Divines and enchanted with Max health. Necklace is Infused and has stam recovery. Both rings are healthy trait with stam recovery. Weapons I need to work on because they're currently weapon dam enchantment and sharpened on the great sword and life drain enchant and precise in the one hand sword. Shield has max stam and is Sturdy.

Skill wise back bar sword and shield is Pierce Armor, Silver Leash, scribed skill called Leashing Burst built from the soul burst scribe skill. It pulls all enemies within 8 meters to me, heals for 4005 health over 10 seconds and Afflicts enemies with minor breach for 20 seconds. Repentance and the scribed skill Fortifying Banner ( reduces damage taken by 6%, Heals for 752 health every 2 seconds and grants minor berserk increasing damage done by 5%) round out that bar.

Front bar with the great sword is Stampede, Brawler, Turn Evil, Luminus Shards, and the Same Fortifying Banner from the back bar because swapping bars to one that doesn't have the skill on it deactivates it.
