This build was inspired because of how many GFs choose to go dps instead of being a tank, and is intended to be used for PVE dungeons where you have either no tank or a dps GF. (you will take agro, and it gets confusing with two tanks because the adds end up being scattered and dont fully stay away from the dps)

With this build your main job will be to take the adds focus away from the main dps, GWF are dps/tanks meaning you can do either or both jobs, of course fully specialized GF tanks can take 100% of all adds in a boss fight, with this build you'll know you're doing it right if you manage to take 75-80%

as a side note this is the build i play as, i average 10 mil damage at the end of epic dungeons and me and my hunter ranger friend who averages 30 mil damage can do epics without a cleric, clerics help, and without one you'll burn potions, but it is possible to do epic dungeons without a GF or Cleric.
