The biggest, and probably only real issue, for RUN tanking right now is physical damage. Everything else can be worked on within realm of gear, I feel, in a properly balanced party. Case-in-point, I feel like trying to tank guys like Dragua who specialize in elemental damage and effects -- but without a way to mitigate physical damage better I don't see it as a real option.

I think RUN really needs its cooldowns softened and waste to mitigate physical damage before anything else.

That's just my opinion though. I'm hoping the Set bonus for Empy+2 is "Converts physical damage into non-elemental magic damage" with a 50% conversion rate.
PLD's speciality is physical damage mitigation and its magic side is very limited outside of specialized gear and precious few abilities. RUN is the polar opposite in the tanking realm in that it is superb at magic damage reduction while leaving itself somewhat vulnerable to physical attacks without its also precious few abilities and specialized gear. It is possible we'll see some conversion gear or -(P/M)DT gear in A/R/E, but it won't be everything.

Your Empy set bonus idea is a nice touch though, however you should know well the activation rate on all empy gear is a sadly depressing < 10%.
