Picking Cider's Brain

[Oculis]

Hey Cider, Barashti here. I've been out of the loop in regards to tanking since the pre-BC patch. I haven't tanked anything on Kaganda since October, and I'm rapidly falling further into noob warrior status. This is a problem, since I'm spending time developing Maelstrom's tanks. With this in mind, I have a few questions for you, if I may.

1. When upgrading gear what stats should take priority? For example, I would assume priority along these lines:

Stam
AC
Block Value
Def/Res
Parry/Dodge
Agi/Str

2. Resiliance or Defense? From a quick search online it seems like gear has either one or the other. Assuming tanks would have at least some of each value, what is more beneficial?

3. I'm considering making every Warrior get the full Bold set. Not only because it seems like a good tanking set, but getting the set would show a certain amount of work ethic on their part, as it will probably take many runs. Is it a good idea to push them towards that? (More of a leadership question, I suppose)

4. When will your bring back the Batman tabard?
