Hi all.

I'm trying to find the best (or at least a VERY good) build for my Dark Armor / Energy Melee tank for when I get him to lvl 50.

I think he will mostly be on teams/leagues, so he would have to be able to take a lot of beating and taunt a lot.

Any thoughts of how I should build him? Any help would be appresiated.
