Is Elec/Elec Good for Tanker?

[drgantz]

I want to make an Elec/Elec.  In the other 3 melee ATs, people tell me that either Elec Melee or Elec Armor is good, but not both.  Are both good for Tanker?

Elec armor is going to be good on Tank. It has high resists, a heal, end management, +recharge, and protection from end drain. I had one on live as part of a hardcore supergroup. Elec melee is good on a Tank for the sake of the AoE aspect and the cap for number of targets. An argument can be made it is better on a Stalker due to help with the ST attack chain, but due to the pet nature of the T9, it can be deemed lesser on a Scrapper or Brute. The biggest issue with Elec is the ST chain although that can be smoothed over when it comes to Epics.

If you're committed to elec/elec on a melee archtype, Tanker would be my first choice.  As has already been said, Elec melee is a heavy aoe set with weaker single target.  Tanker will lean into the aoe theme making your aoe's bigger and hitting more targets.  As a resist set with good endurance fixing, elec armor is solid on a tank (all tank armors are pretty solid).

Thank you both for your replies.  I made a tanker, and it is doing well so far.
