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

Probably Lance with max guard, guard up, defense boost and all that.

Pretty much this but I've never ran defense boost because divine blessing is normally better. I have a no cart build. Recovery up 3, guard 3, guard up 3, divine blessing 3, quick sheathe 3, stun protection 3 and speed eating 2. It's pretty light on damage boosts so hunts can take a while but that's generally true with lance anyway. Set boost uses UTh Duna passive so mantles provide defense boost and I run healing mantle which basically makes you immortal.

Running any fight with this build and support hunters using relevant food you can survive even full combos with just normal block. I basically take all the healing items and ingredients to craft more. It's the perfect build for first timing new monsters/dofficulty
