I till now have only suceeded tanking with Lapis Hoplite using the Empower Summons Power (is not necessarily necessary if with high presence) to make it an bit more resilient and also have an Black Mage with the Powerful Binding Perk also helps (is also not necessarily necessary if with high presence and using the Empower Summons).
What i did found out with other summons/rally companion Powers is that most of them lack some or in all three of the following areas:
1 - Lack sufficent aggro generation;
2 - They lack survivability against mostly spellcaster parties;
3 - They get easily critted down.
