Tank and Support builds focus on survivability, drawing enemy aggression, and empowering allies. These builds prioritize Vitality and Fortitude for defense, and often Mind and Willpower for support Gifts. Key Blood Codes include Atlas, Isis, Scout, and Heimdall. Heavy Blood Veils like the Glaive or Noble Silver provide excellent defensive stats. Essential Gifts include 'Iron Will' for damage reduction, 'Guard of Honor' to draw aggro, 'Restorative Offering' for healing allies, and various buffs like 'Bridge to Glory' or 'Elemental Wall' to enhance the party. Weapons can vary, but often include those with good blocking capabilities or status effects. These builds are invaluable in co-op and can make challenging boss fights much more manageable.
