ok I'm no master, but, ik you need dexterity, not focus,and what bosses can you tank at lv 25?!?!
maybe urgan the wretched… at most.
ok before you wanna tank make sure you have decent items, min id recommend for ur lv (not that youll be tanking much)
full red claw armor and a sword, like an evasive balanced falchion, or just a normal one but thats boring XD
that in total is like 9k
then for stats:
3:2 vit:dex for full tank with just enough str for ur weapon
OR
3:2 vit:str for leveling tank

don't put in much or any focus unless you don't have energy regen( if you can't even gets bronze ammy by the time you start, maybe don't even start tanking yet.)

skills are simple:
max proc stance asap
1/3 max def formation if you have
as much as you need in shield bash
1/2 max or max taunt (i do half max atm cause I'm only lv 30 on my tank), replace later for warcry
i don't have shield wall yet so idk about that
rest of points in bandage wounds

thats all ik cause I'm noob at tank, someone else will do better, but this is ok i think.

so my current analysis of ur build is... you prob can't even solo a 3 star in shale ( i could but thats just me)
ill submit my build now to get some criticism of my own.

Why are you tanking? Don't tank until 170 minimum!

Don't know about 170, but I would have thought that you just want to be killing mobs and leveling at 25. Get some dps and enough health to stay alive. Don't sweat tanking until 100+. (IMHO tanking is only necessary for bosses when your job is to hold aggro. Good luck

You have the right idea. Just wait to start tanking until you're closer to my level. It's more important to level. Especially below lv100
