Absolute Defense?

[Frostberg]

Hello All,

I just joined EEV a week ago, and I was browsing archives and saw these sets..

1. Lv115 - Guardian Knight's Set (5)(Head, Body, Waist, Hands & Feet)
2. Lv115 - Nasci's Set B (4)(Cape, Necklace, Ring 1 & 2)
3. Lv115 - Leonic Set (2)(Trophies)

I think they're the best tanking build (gear-wise).

Calculated the stats (Raw stats from these items)

1. Defense +30284
   Str +575
   Agi +686
   Lck +46
   Wis +742
   HP +23852
   MP +7752
   Eva +530
   Acc +140
   P-Healing +978
   Less Damage Taken (500 +10%)
   Aspd +331
   Mspd +5%
   Block (313 +13%)
   All Resistance +19
   Nature Resistance +4
   Malice +40%
   Less PVE Damage (9%)

2. Penalty: -40% Damage Dealt

3. Chance Effects when attacking
   > 5% chance to grant surrounding allies within 15M "Guardian Status" which recovers 3% HP every second and -5% Dmg taken.
   > 5% chance to decrease damage taken by 10% for 10 seconds when attacked.
   > 10% chance to recover 15% of HP with 15 Seconds cooldown
   > 5% chance to increase all resistance +15, -15% Damage dealt and -20% G-Heal for 7 seconds
   > 10% chance to increase block rate +10% and Move speed +10% for 10 seconds
   > 10% chance to reduce damage taken -1020 for 7 seconds
   > 5% chance to recover 7500 HP and remove 2 negative status
   > 5% chance to recover 400 MP and increase def +40%

I guess my question will be;

1. What would be the best class/job that would definitely be tanky for this?
2. Best 1-Hand weapon that would fit (Class/Job-wise)

TLDR: I'm posting this so that I can have "Goal Setting" to help me stay in the game. XD

To me builds like this would favour a class such as Shielder or maybe Paladin.

If you like tanky classes then I would recommend just playing the game first and have a feel for the game since this game classes can be tanky without being a specific tank. So you could play full damage beserker and still be tanky due to life steal and also building resistances.

I'd just get a feel for the classes before selecting gear for them as being tanky on different classes requires builds that are specific for those classes.
