I know I said old fashioned way and I plan to do so but every one in awhile I would go to box or do Wurms, last question lets say I was to try survivor on a Warrior should my build focus more on skills such as Defy Pain and Endure Pain to Tank and stay alive?

Maybe you don't agree with me, but I would say paragon. Mine hasn't die yet and I wasn't trying to get another survivor. It just happened and she has ended nightfall and factions, most of the missions with bonus. Paragon has max armor and a lot of protective skills, so that's an advantage.

I did LS the same way with my warrior that you are planning on doing, advancing in the campaigns with the occasionally boxing / farming session and I would not take Defy Pain assuming you got decent defensive heroes. Endure Pain can be good to have though, I used it and it helped me a couple of times where I lagged / overcommitted etc. Just be ready to micro some prots onto yourself and you won't need a "tank" build.

Imo - and you've already got a lot of these. The easiest to get survivor on is the paragon; for a number of reasons:

1) Very high armour - comparible to a warrior.
2) Ability to use even more armour increasing/damage reducing shouts (there's nothing to fear).
3) Ranged damage, so easier to move out of AoE and unlikely to get jumped on by assassins.
