Guild Wars 2

I would like to do other paths, but many people are just “farming” the dungeons, and the other paths don’t seem as rewarding for the time spent. Dungeons are kinda broken at the moment

SO Anet says that any class can do anything, and i wanted to know if that was true with making a more “tanky” thief. I currently use D/D daggers with Critical Strikes and Trickery, but i want to run TA Explorable and maybe other dungeons and very few people are set up for controlling aggro and being able to just “tank” small groups of enemies (i know you can’t just stand there and take a beating, but i get hit once or twice and i die doesn’t make me someone who wants to be on the front lines holding the mobs attention) and i wanted to ask if anyone has suggestions to making a more “tanky thief” and all.
Thanks
