Try either:

4304 TKA / 4400 Fencer / Master Pistoleer / 0040 Smug / Novice Medic
For Ranged Defense Stacking

or

4304 TKA / Master Fencer / 1044 Pistoleer / Medic 0040
For Melee


Both these templates max your range/melee defense
gives 3range and 2melee mit on the 1st one and
2range and 3melee mit on the 2nd one
VERY high dizzy, posture change, and KD resist.

On the ranged version youll need to get pistol spd tapes thought
to cap your pistol. Keep in mind with the range template:
You start a fight with a baton, Dizzy target, Switch to Pisol and
Lowblow, last ditch at cap.... Very nice.

Good stuff. I am trying to get a tanking template. Ranged isn't good for this job in my mind because of the bonus melee gets when attacking ranged oponents.

with the ranged defense stacking template I have there....
you have like
130 range def /w 2 auckan rings
170-175 melee def /w no addons
range mitigation 3
melee mitigation 2
125 dodge before food and tapes

with that template If the person can even HIT you (high defense which makes landing harder,
high dodge) the melee mitigation 2 will subvert alot of that damage.
If you keep your targets intimidated youll see even less damage comming.

Ive been that Smuggler/Pistol/Defense template for a while now and its Amazing

MLS...4402ENH...4000healer...3040DEFENDER...one of the best pvp templates out i think..

from what I hear its a waste, the addition of def fromfa2 is so slight with mdef that its barelyeven noticeable.

my idea for a template was ls 0404, healer 3000, enhancer 4402, master defender. My question is will the master defender / force armor combo be effective. Will I be a good tank?

As anyone every tried a master defender + enhancer 0400 template. I was wondering if this might be effective. Let me know what u think.

I Havent done it myself, but i have a couple of guildies how have something close x2xx enhancer instead of x4xx. Which is because going from one to the other is something like .25% of a reduction difference thanks to diminishing returns and what not with the innate armor. That being said, have FA and Mdef is a little overkill, but it does suck up the damage really well.
