Forge Cleric 5e - Ultimate Guide for Dungeons and Dragons - a podcast by SkullSplitter Dice

This is best of the defensive options for tanky clerics with some proper arcane armor and magic weapons. Between the Blessing of the Forge and Soul of the Forge abilities, a forge domain cleric can gain +2 AC on top of heavy armor. Start with one of the races that has a built in +1 AC like warforged or Simic hybrid, put on some full plate and add on a shield and your full casting cleric can have 23 AC as early as level 6!

Then just cast shield of faith to walk around the dungeon with a cool 25 AC. And why not, have some free fire damage resistance as a cherry on top! Other than the tanky aspect you basically get to turn your weapon into basic magic weapons with a damage and attack bonus. And you get some utility out of the channel divinity option, which lets you craft a nonmagical object. Combined with your arcane armor and magical weapon, the forge grants a touch of artificer feel in there as well.
