what are the strong tanking builds now?

I have been playing mostly summoner for past leagues, Its fun...until end game when most boss can 1 shot me.

So I would like to ask how do I build a tanky toon that can withstand boss fights more pleasantly. Or how do I adjust my summoner build for that goal. Budge is not an issue for me, I trade alot and able to get what I want.

Any inputs appreciated, tired of dying like cockroach in end-game, dont care about huge damage, just want the best tanky build so I can laugh at boss while whacking them down. ty

Low-life RF - 20k++ ES, 5-7kES regen. You can afk on guardians.
If in doubt, add more ES.

Out of bordedom though, you'll afk cuz the dps is so meh.
This is the cheapest and tankiest build i played so far, really recommend giving a try:

It has nice survivability and good enough dps to clear maps just fine. You may have issues with Guardians but nothing major.

Budget is not an issue for me as I mentioned, I just want to try an absolute tanky build which can survive things like merc act4 boss and all end game boss.

I just saw a video of RF low life with 15,000 es, still got 1 shoted by act4 boss, is it really a tanky build?

The example he showed was 5800 HP @ Level 76. That's RIP city. Even with Vaal pact.

Facetank guardians and still have good dps and clearspeed?
