Tank for PvP

[GR8_Scotts]

OK, so I had this bizzare idea to make my tanker a PvP build. Not the cheapest (or most logical) route but that is why I wanted to do it... just because! So, nice lvl 60 shield, lvl 55 blues (full dim set) and my old lvl 50 sword are all +9. Def is 1,200 without scrolls or cookies. With scrolls and cookie it tops 1,700. Base magic def is around 550 I think (have two +9 rings that are +45 MDef each). So I hit the lvl 50 abyss where I typically got abused by PKrs and find a lvl 43 fighter who wants an 'escort'. Sure enough he gets jumped by a full crit axe wielder. He and I square off... after about 10 hits I have to use an HP stone. He keeps swinging with all he has, I use another stone. After about a minute he gets frustrated and wants me to drop my shield... like hell. He forgets to keep an eye on his HP: vamp strike and down he goes. His mage friend launches a string of spells at me and notices my HP only drops about 30%, I tap an hp stone. He backs way off and says 'oops, sorry about that... wrong target'. Yeah, I think this is going to be a fun experiment!
