Rev or Guardian?

Never mind? Never mind?! 

No you never mind, the title alone portrays such arrogance towards the one to whom you should pay homage.

Guardian?
Revenant?

These are but weaklings who struggle under the weight of their own armor, petulant children whom play at knight without the physical acumen to back their lofty ambitions.

Where, pray tell, is the Warrior?
Where is the one, true heavy armor class?
Where is the class that layers themselves with plates of steel atop coats of mail without succumbing to the heft of the mountains of metal they bare on their back? 

I suspect your question be one of trickery, intended to deceive, as if you are one of the shadow people who hide with their cowardly tricks. To alienate and drive others from the Way which provides to them enlightenment. 

Hark!

My Warrior brethren, our foes are all about us! They disguise their attempts to undermine us with sufficient deniability to feign innocence, but we who have struggled on the mountain of suffering have developed a vision that cuts through such foolish deceit! The mist which they seek to wrap around the heads of the feeble and weak is but a faint haze before our vision; our vision which has been sharpened on the stones of sacrifice and the boulders of pain. 

Listen here, OP, for we shall lead you to the way. Those who bear armor to great for them are pitiful individuals whom hobble themselves with shackles they willingly pick up, thinking them strengths, never to know they are their weakness. But they need not always be so blind! Listen to these words, the supports ye hath erected about thine self are the source of thine own failing!

I know it may be painful to cast aside the comforts of the shelter to which you have grown accustomed. I know that the mountain we climb looks cold and painful and unforgiving — because it is.

For it is on the pain and suffering and cold and loneliness that we find within ourselves a strength that eclipses the combined might of all the other professions. It is in our sacrifice that we acquire a strength grounded upon the bedrock of certainty; a foundation that is unshakable by the inferior professions that build their houses on sand, raise up walls of reeds, and then avert their eyes from the glory available to them, choosing to claim those who have seized upon the greatness open to all have been gifted such accomplishment unfairly.

Nay!

Come!

Take up your sword, remove your shoes, and begin cutting your feet on the sharp pebbles at the bottom of the mountain. With time you shall come to love the pain! And with that, you shall begin to rise, you shall begin to inch forward! Step by step, one rock at a time you shall climb.

Climb to meet us, high at the top, beyond the sight of those who rest beneath the one who ventures out into the wilderness.

Climb until your legs are stable and strong.

Climb until your back widens to a breadth that should humble the trees.

Climb until your arms are like the granite upon which you have thrown yourself.

Climb, my brother!

Climb to be a warrior, to reach the pinnacle that rests beyond what is capable of those who degrade themselves in the vile clutches of the lesser professions!

And when met with their villainous plots and deplorable deceit, spread your legs wide, sink yourself deep into a bourse stance, and begin swinging your sword. Drive them back with your focus, crush their schemes and plots with an unrelenting will that bursts forth from your soul like a thousand suns exploding in unison. 

Yes, my brother, the way is open to thee! Join us, become one with us, climb with us, seek the greatness of the beyond with us! Become a Warrior!
