I think Guardian is better for a specific dual-class of Tank.
Rogues are mobile, so maybe we could call those motorcycles.. This idea would have same logic than current tank if players just would start to use it. And dont you dare.
The tank is the 20th century realization of an ancient concept: that of providing troops with mobile protection and firepower. The internal combustion engine, armour plate, and continuous track were key innovations leading to the invention of the modern tank.
Many sources imply that Leonardo da Vinci and H.G. Wells in some way foresaw or "invented" the tank. Leonardo's late 15th century drawings of what some describe as a "tank" show a man-powered, wheeled vehicle with cannons all around it. However the human crew would not have enough power to move it over larger distance, and usage of animals was problematic in a space so confined. In the 15th century, Jan Žižka built armoured wagons containing cannons and used them effectively in several battles.
The devs did say that the names may not be final, so it's possible they will choose a name other than Tank before launch.

I know that a Tank is likely to be wearing plate and is intended to do a great deal of damage while "soaking" a lot of damage.
A Swashbuckler should fall under the Fighter archetype. As should a Duelist.
It's clear that neither of those fits the image of a Tank.
A Paladin should fall under the Tank archetype. As should a Knight.
Both of those fit the image of heavily armored combatants. Swashbuckler,
Duelist, Fighter, Paladin, Knight, Tank all fit the image of a defender or guardian. That's clear as mud.

Just because you have no body of writing!!
