Barbarian (Ancestral Guardian) is very tank/lockdown. Especially with the resistance to damage from barbarian and the ability to not drop when you go to 0.
To gain skills NON-combat I would use a background to do it. You could be a Hermit who has Insight and Medicine and Herbalism kit. Or Acolyte or heck even Entertainer.
You could be the tribe's skald (Entertainer/Sage combination) loremaster with the History & Performance Skills, an instrument and the Entertainer Feature to let you perform your tribe's ancient epics in taverns across the land, spreading the name and renown of your tribe, who also draws on the Ancestors to fuel their combat ability and protect the tribe from harm (Ancestral guardian).
If you are building a juggernaut, are you really looking to spend anything on social skills? You are going to need to cut out some sort of damage to do it.
Barbarians have resistance to magical damage too.thinking about:
Goliath Barbarian
maximum to CON, then STR.
resistance to nonmagical dmg
If that was in reply to me... I was just offering suggestions based on the OP. See below.If you are building a juggernaut, are you really looking to spend anything on social skills? You are going to need to cut out some sort of damage to do it.
If that was in reply to the OP, well, it's really not that helpful.
One of his "Main Features" was

Well, it was just a thought/suggestion. You can build the way you think its best. How you picture it. How would you do it?
I'm just saying that if you are building something to do massive damage, you put the feats and weapon choices into damage and not things like history and persuasion. When the OP said Hulk I thought big and green over Bruce Banner. I know he referenced other people such as Thanos which can be argued over, but that was not my intent.
