    Yes, it is viable. Keep it at one healer and two tanks for levelling instances. Concentrate on getting as much aggression as you can mostly with non-DPS tools.

    Yes guards can tank with polearm, for general tanking I would go for this: http://joharaoc.eu/feat?link=v21_114...61ac0639c05e88

    You can switch points, for example from Riposte (which I only use as a filler and to make use out of the last few seconds of Volcanic Rage and Hateful Strikes) to something different.

    If you want to tank mage bosses you just switch points from Iron Skin to Stone Skin: http://joharaoc.eu/feat?link=v21_114...61ac0639c05e88

    But always keep in mind: With Shield and Sword you will have an easier life in almost all situations and the damage is almost the same, the polearm just looks cool.

    Tanking with polearm works but;
    Worse survival
    Worse aggro
    Worse teambuffs
    Less variation of combodirections to abuse shields.
    Around same dps

    The only scenario i like to use it is when clearing instances with alot of annoying spread out trash which i can reach and hold aggro on easier with the polearm.

    Okay speccs, but I would rather replace Fortitude and Riposte and put them in Battlecry->Ardent battlecry. The damage boost is higher, and u can use it along with hatefull for the controlled aggro bursts. It also gives dps to others in the group.

    Using riposte as a fast filler is not to recommend. The damage scaling of the combo is freakishly low. Especially if you havent evaded any hits b4 using it, but even if you do, a whitehit on unshielded side will most of the time do more damage. Its pretty broken feat. So if you have couple secs left on hatefull/volcanic rather start a good combo, the combostarter whitehits will do more damage then riposte.
