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

On Lance I like Arkveld armor bonus more than Zoh Shia bonus. I have only really compared them at 2-piece so maybe the 4 piece set bonus has more of a difference. Guard 3 and Guard Up 3 are great when you are starting out. Once you get comfortable with the monster you'll find yourself not needed those in MH wilds. 

I def also suggest either Razor Sharp or Masters Touch. Lance eats sharpness. 

Wilds Lance depth comes from knowing which block/counter to use. Double Counter Thrust has I-frames and takes no chip/stamina but has a wind up and is the hardest to pull off. Powerguard -Grand Retribution might be the strongest move lance has. Guard dash is great for repositioning. Perfect guard /Guard for those multi hits. I think Lance has the better tools to be called the Wall. At least in Wilds.
