Think I'd go with a Warrior primarily though as I've grown rather tired of the "Holy Warrior" archetype after several years as a boring, no-good too-easy-for-its-own-good Paladin in WoW and I want to play something offensive for once. I'm not completely 100 on what exactly the Guardian is, all I know is that it apparently uses defensive magic, has a shield and wears plate, which is very Paladin-like.
