I just wanna throw out that having an ungodly amount of sustain does not a tank make. I have other notes I'd like to make, but what you have here is a Bruiser, or maybe even a Melee Assassin, but without any CC or other means of protecting the team, you won't be filling the tank role in any kind of team composition.

I realized this myself as I was reformatting the talents. I think he's a high-sustain melee assassin, all things considered. Instead of reworking him I'm going to redo his first heroic and relabel him as a melee assassin.

The first heroic was actually one of my two other points, since gaining 25 armor passively isn't really a particularly good heroic, since there's no room for skill expression. That said, my suggestion would actually be to turn Putrid Blood into a heroic. As-is, the damage bonus is too piddling relative to the risk, and as a basic ability, I don't think there's an easy set of numbers to get it right, but as a Heroic you can really push it into extremes that really make things feel impactful.

On a lesser note, I think the trait and Q have too much overlap. It's a bit redundant for both AAs and Q to do the healing thing. You could give Q an armor effect, or give Q much bigger heals, and have basic attacks lower its cooldown, and have a new trait. Either way, the melee assassin route sounds good for this kit.
