What do you think the best equipment for your main tank is? (and I dont just mean swords and armor, but any reply is appreciated)

Gauntlets: Gauntlets of Weapon Expertise
Boots: Boots of Speed
Ring: Ring of Gaxx (preferable x2) or with Ring of Protection +2

Long live H22A1!!!!!

Armor: Red scale.

Principium mors est.
But when the world of the deads comes,
we will already be there.

I think having a variety of potions handy is also key for a good warrior. Obviously, healing and haste potions, but also a few of your situational type potions as well such as fire resistance, clarity, and magical protection.

If not a Sorcerer casting total oblivion, then a Cavalier meting out justice. Otherwise, I think I will just be a Blade and torture my enemies with, "My Heart Will Go On".
