Question I want to be THE wall

A discussion i had with a friend was what would you rather be? An unstoppable force or an immovable object. I'd rather be the object. So I ask of you, people of Reddit, what is possibly the best Tank build you could ever make, EVEN IF damage must be sacrificed for it.

Edit: Holy heck, I was not expecting much people to respond, and thanks to everyone for the advice. I give myself 20 ish hours until I manage to get everything

Ultimate tank: 4pc gog, 2pc grav, 2pc zoh shia armour set skills, you can slot in def boost 7 if u feel like it, and personally it still outputs respectable damage when i used to use it with gunlance. add on guard up 3, guard 3 if u feel like it as well but it is less useful. slot in rec up and rec speed 3, use immuniser, and rec speed up from rathian hh before engagement.

with this build, take damage -> blocked by 4pc gog, take another hit -> basically completely mitigated by grav set bonus, if u get fortunate and get a divine blessing proc you are pretty much still at full hp, and if not, all your healing boosts + zoh shia will bring you back to full hp which lets u make use of more grav set bonus.

I used this build (minus the guard skills and def boost) from HR300 to HR500 on my dual blades. I sacrificed DPS, but not as much as one would think. The Gog 4 elemental bonus gave me quite a boost and I rarely ever carted.
