Tanking has no specific build. Anyone who tells you otherwise miserably fails as a tank, or has never played one.

Full DPS Shen tends to be bad because he doesn't have any autoattack-enhancing abilities, and his base AD/AS are mediocre at best. You'll also almost always run out of energy, because you generally won't be dashing into enemies (it'll encourage enemies to target you, when they see you taking buttloads of damage from having zero defense items) thus you'll always have no energy left after dashing/feinting.

So, effective builds range from full tank to tank/DPS.
