There are more melee mobs than caster, by a considerable amount.

Scale is arguably the best in the game, given the current mechanics of how defense works. Leather is a close second, followed by Chain/Padded Robe. This is not to say Plate and Robe are bad, they are just not nearly as balanced as a Scale.

EE is better for tanking hands down.

It's not that ee is better for tanking. Ee is only for tanking, dex/str is only for damage. If you're going to tank, you must have ee on your armor :) mediums are best, but the most expensive. If you're on a budget I'd recommend chains, but plates will work too. Don't use tank robes until you have to ;) (like on monk and ninja)
