SWTOR Republic Trooper Tank Builds

Are you playing as a Republic Trooper in SWTOR and want to learn how to properly build for advanced class for tank? If you are looking to build a strong character, you have come to the right place!

Hello there, my name is Connie Heo and I have been an avid Star Wars : The Old Republic player ever since beta. I consider myself to be a solid SWTOR player and have helped many people create stronger builds to tackle certain situations.

Below, I have outlined viable builds for the Republic Trooper that I have used in the past to be effective in tank.

Every class in SWTOR has a tanking class. For the Republic Trooper, the advanced class that excels in tanking is the Vanguard.

By properly creating a viable tanking build for the Trooper Vanguard, you will be an undefeatable force that will require a dozen or more enemies to take you down.

To create this pure tank build for my Vanguard, I spec'd into the tanking tree, Shield Specialist and put the remainder of my points into the Tactics talent tree.

My completed tank build for my Vanguard at level 50 is 30/11/0.

This build gives a lot of survivability to your Trooper Vanguard for pretty much any situation that you are in. Abilities such as Brutal Impact gives you nice DPS and threat to get you and your team out of sticky situations.

Some of you might notice that I did not put points in Ion Shield. I put my points into Power Armor instead, which is essentially the same thing. By doing so, I will have access to Gut to gain extra DPS to put pressure on my opponents.

Below is a screenshot of my tank build for my Vanguard at level 50.
