Critiques welcome. I've been in a very theorycrafting mood today. Expect to hear more about these builds in the future on The Briefing Room.

Threat to My Enemies
These are both tanking builds. This one is the one I plan on using, and focuses on heavy defense and being able to keep aggro in group situations:

Resolute Defender
This secondary build, which I would also like to try, sacrifices some threat generation to turn Resolute into an ability you might actually use more than occasionally. You lose Courage and Command from the Defense tree, meaning some of your best AoE threat generators will be less accessible, but you pick up Profound Resolution and Second Wind from the Focus tree, making Resolute actually one of your best abilities (and an extra "Oh crap!" button, in addition to the three you already have.)

If you get a chance to try either of these out, let me know, and feel free to share your own ideas.

Very similar to the build I use, except that I go further into Vigilance and forego Focus altogether.

Until I know how hard 3% Accuracy is to get by gear, and how much I need to be hit-capped against end-game bosses, I'm going to assume that 3% Accuracy is better than almost anything else. After all, you can't build threat if you can't hit.

My post here has a link near the bottom to my core tanking spec and a couple alternatives.
