Jaheira had the highest armor rating in my game - even better than Keldorn. I got her to -11 or -12. For the most part, she wore red dragon armor. Between stoneskins and a certain amulet that makes one immune to level drain, she's a decent tank. Add a good strength-granting item and she's wonderful.
She used sword + shield style, and giving her the small shield that prevents confusion or charm spells, along with high saves and other items, keeps her from being disabled very much at all. For a sword, I used Belm +2 when it would harm the critter I was fighting 'cause the extra attack is great. Unfortunately, I didn't find a better scimitar until ToB. Also, she carried a normal scimitar, and was the group's sole assassin of critters which can't be harmed by magic. As well, she carried staves which allowed magic spells - she would pull them out just to summon something or just to beat up on a golem and then put them right back.
Her second weapon was a sling - a good one - which damaged everything.
She was in a party with:
Keldorn, PC (Stalker), Aerie, Yoshi/Imoen, and Nalia. She was the second/third tank and quite good at it.
[edit] P.S.: Though some will disagree, I think her romance in SoA was well worth it and it has some great parts. I've heard it's buggy, but mine did fine. ToB romance w/ her is a bit less interesting (much less, in fact).
PS - I suggest you keep the absolute possible heaviest armor on her. I don't know if my game was bugged, but she could wear ANY armor and still retain abilities - even though the book says Druids are restricted on armor.
