I'm assuming your talking mobs here.

Um... pick up some Five-Color mail. That helps a lot.

Seriously, beyond that, equipment is pretty meaningless for tanking. Healing items like hammer pendants or titanium spear are your best bet... +hp after that. That's all, really.

What determines your tanking ability is your skills, influenced in their effectiveness by your stats.

A naked hasted arial warrior wielding two practice swords, with 100% parry, dodge, flourintine, and 100% in all weapons, will be a very, very, very good tank. Much better than a dwarf mace spec could ever hope to be, regardless of how much gear they had.
