Monks are already the best damage mitigators for group based stuff. Just get yourself some stun proc weapons and watch as your cleric sits at FM so much that he starts nuking.
Now if you plan on doing harder stuff down the line (halls of testing, or raid targets) youll need a warrior. SK and Paladins are only good for offtanking adds in certain zones like kael. Paladins also get a +200hp buff which stacks with aego so it's nice to have a paladin around.
I know there's plenty of things that paladins and SK's are also good at, but theyre terrible damage mitigators compared to monks for group based stuff. They can tank harder stuff (like at halls of testing) but it's such a huge stress on healers, and if you're not geared up through the teeth then one bad attack round from a mob will bring you down.
SK's are fun to mess around on because of FD.
