this guide will tell you how to tank well with a sploit or 2 and it will tell you a recommended template to be good at it,
step 1 tanking: usually in restuss most battles happen at the emporers hand spawn. This will give you a great chance to tank. As always Put in quite a few kills so there aggro'ed onto you. Then FR to the med center run right up to the top of it, keep them chasing you until you see a ditch in the side of the building walk into it and run into the front of you, edge along a littl bit while still running and you will appear under the med center.
(some players will know how to do tis is which case as soon as you see them near you run out of a wall) giving your enemys the slip
step 2 templates:Templates differ from every jedi in galaxies there isnt just one almighty temp like there is for medic or commando so this template is good for defensive and tanking purposes only. below is a link that shows a good tanking template feel free to improve on it if you wish.

step 3 what you need: for a good tank and at he same time a quite good one on one dueler. i am currently using a Agi,con and str suit and i am doing quite well but i am thinking of changing to a agi,cons,precision set up. i have a defensive shirt which stacks. 5 parry chance,5dodge chance and 4 strikethru <-----for that extra bit of damage. but what really gives me the edge is i mix Parry weap,armour and clothes pups with thakatillo giving me an outstanding 2.4 - 2.5k parry without saberblock and 5k parry with saberblock giving me an outstanding defense.
step 4: outnumbered: when outnumbered in a 2 on 1 situation Area attacks are your FRIEND. IMO focuse on the weakest first to get the nuisance over with dont waste any of your good buffs on him/her then swap to the stronger one use all your buffs and FR away to recharge heal and SB . which then brings us to one on ones.
step 5: when in a one on one duel making the mistake of using SB as soon a you start fighting will be te death of you as many people i have fought have done the same thing and the same thing happens to them...dead....So i recommend using saber block later down the line so hen you health is about this much I--------------I use saber block with te parry PuPs and thakatillo you will be able to defends yourself and rip away that theres then when your healths reaches this much I--------I heal and moderately spam specials always rebuff yourself while fightning make them use there heal at the wrong time which most will do and let of every attck you've got in one big blast so there health is gone. Defensive stances is best used, so is musty injector,shard of retaliation and the defensive burst crystal. when they run out use vita caps. Also a good recmmended entertainer buff is full energy proc full agi full dodge and full cons/prec you can choose.
ending: there are obviously Sploit hat can save you the work of this but this is for people who arnt to sure bout sploits and want to be good without them.
i hope this guide helps
