Take a look at this: http://fiestafan.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17384

Even if you are planning on becoming a full end tank I highly recommend getting an axe. I'm a full end tank as well and I carry around an axe for when I solo.

An axe will definitely help if you solo but if you know you'll be partying a lot or even going into KQs then 1h/shield is a good choice.

Like I said I am a full end tanker too but because of that I don't kill as fast so I do invest in some str gears/rings.

My fighters' a tank with full end with sword and sheild...and if you're thinking of tanking alot, mock cooldown and devastate cooldown is a must, and maybe if you want to add dmg too devastate then you can fully empower that.. Since full end fighters do have lots of def, str is needed as well so vit is really inportant. When you get too 70+, Accurate Strike (?) and slice and dice deal the most dmg, so its an option to empower the dmg on those as well, but it really all depends on what the person wants.

Axes on the other hand, its pretty similar with a little bit of skill swtiching, but...I dont know much about it.

For my own fighter I have maxed cooldown on Mock, fully maxed Devastate, and full damage and cooldown on Power Hit and Precise Strike.

When I am tanking for a party or KQ I'm not concerned about dealing the most damage but being able to keep the mobs around me. So that's where Devastate and Mock comes in. When I solo I use an axe so I empowered both the 2-handed weapon skills to maximize what damage I can.

IMO, the other skills cooldown fairly fast so I'm not too worried about empowering anything on Slice'n'Dice or Accurate Strike (1h). But it is an option if you are only going to use 1h/shield. Vitality is great for both builds.

OK, Max out STR on Slice and Dice, then save 15 points for Devastate. after that Cool Down on Mock. MAX OUT STR, Cool Down, and Stun Time on Devastate. after that you need to talk to a higher level fighter.
