You could do tank testing between a bard and a knight. Both plate classes and possible to increase AC to a similar level. Warriors are believed to have a natural bonus to mitigation so that would skew things (then again the knight might as well).

I’ve always believed it’s better to gear for overall purpose than a single one (ie collective tanking stats vs “dex/agil build”). With a general upgrade path amongst all the 2 expansions, the difference between two player characters comes down to availability of those items.

If you do str build, dex build, sta build, agi build you do get the benefit of doing 4 different warriors and having fun exploring different items each time. It is good for replayability if not effectiveness [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

With a bag of jewelry and a 2h you can go DPS or tanking. That’s all ya need [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

AGI build was very useful back when it negated low HP side effects (slow movement & crushing blows.

At the risk of sounding too obvious some classes have disciplines you can use for this.
