Actually, Dervish is the best class for survivor IMO, and you can try it with my old Juggernaut build, which will deal nice damage while having amazing defense capabilities. The advantage over typical earth tanks and I dunno what, is that you can safely play almost any game area, and that if your defensive enchantment gets stripped you can quickly recast it since they're spammable.
Of course, the build is old and was made before EotN skills etc, but the core is the same: Dwayna + Prot spirit + RoF spam, and good Mysticism.
I dont remember if linking to that other website is allowed so I'll just copy paste:

15 Mysticism
12 Scythe (but can be 14, another sup rune wont hurt much at all)
8 Protection Prayers
(The rest is pretty much obvious; two runes of Attunement, Radiant insignia... 20% longer enchantments on scythe etc.)
Reversal of Fortune
Protection Spirit
Victorious Sweet
Chilling Victory
Heart of Fury
Mending Touch

Prot spirit can be kept on more or less all the time. It works wonders in high end pve. I also keep watching party box to drop it on any ally who needs it (same with RoF).
Chilling Victory does cold dmg even when you're blind. If you think this skill is only good in PvE and not in RA, think again. I was totally suprised how many people cluster there, letting the scythe smack like 2-3 of them plus their spirits if any.
Most battles in RA will usually be over by the time Dwayna expires. Yes, you're thinking again, no one is that stupid to cast hexes on you, since you can spam RoF and other skills. Wrong. Hardly anyone knows what this skill does. I've had 6 flawless in RA before lag killed me, and everyone kept putting anti-warrior (even Backfire!) hexes on me all the time. Which magically disappeared.
Spamming RoF while under Prot spirit and Dwayna, does wonders. If someone is attacking you (which is especially frequent in PvE) you waste 1 energy to get 100 heal + you reduce 50dmg. I cant possibly imagine why someone will want a warrior tank. Yes i had monsters using their disenchants on me, but it didnt hurt me since i spammed prot spirit back on.
Tweak the build and that's it.
