Looks as if there's need for a tank in my guild, so I was hoping to get some advice from the boards. I haven't tanked in DDO, although I spent about ten years tanking in world of warcraft. So I used to be good at it, whatever that's worth.
Can you guys point me at a good way to learn how to tank the DDO way? (Youtube content? Spending an hour trudging through R4 content with hirelings?)
As for build questions, I have an alt but no plan.
The character I'm planning to convert has the following:
My total lack of DDO tanking experience means that I don't really know the details - how much intimidation is required for the type of content that a newbie tank should handle? A first-pass 20 Paladin build in DDOBuilder had 5000hp, 350PRR and 215MRR. Is that anywhere near enough for anything current? What builds make the most sense as a first tank?

The character I'm planning to convert has the following:
- +8 tome
- 3 racial and 2 universal points, for a total of 85 points
- pretty good non-raid Feywild and Sharn level 29 tanking gear sets, but not much for minor artifacts. The Prince's Gauntlet is her tankiest artifact.
- 18 reaper points
- around 7 or so filigree slots, although I could probably wrangle more.
- I'm sure I have a fair amount of iod/vecna gear, around my account, but not full legendary sets
