I've too recently started SAM so far close to lvl 16 and from my experience so far for tanking we can do it as long as there's a decent back-up or WHM there with you almost got my ass handed to me by lizzies in the dunes. Other than that I've been with a NIN or PLD so I've been on back-up I've subbed WAR so far and it's the best I have for it at the moment.

For weapons I've stuck with the Great Katana and my bow from RNG. I've got the Great Katana that drops from Carano in South Gustaburg (forgot it's name) I've been told it's the best weapon you can have intill 25.

and that's my 2 pence from my limited experience so far.
