IMO, just learning what you're doing from 1-20 is hardcore gaming. I mean, I got killed 3 times before lvl 2 on my shaman (damn vengeful soloists, and kos yellow cons!). I think it's fair to say that if you're new and you want to be a tank, you will probably regret it. If you're new, you want to be a tank, and you choose to create a bard, you will CERTAINLY regret it.
There are some other debatable parts of the guide:
"I want to be able to get groups and level quickly
Enchanter > Cleric > Warrior/Shadowknight/Paladin > Rogue > Monk > Shaman > Bard"
I've had no problems finding groups as a shaman, and we're always happy to have a bard along. Most bards are out soloing OT or DL, so finding one to group with is always nice. The chance you'll be sitting around in a dungeon waiting for a group is more about how necessary you are AND how many of your class are competing for group spots. Rogues are relatively easy to twink and require groups pretty early, so I'd argue it's easier to get into a group as a shaman or bard than as a rogue. Enchanters are extremely useful, but there are quite a few of them as well. Do magicians and necros really have such a hard time finding groups? I never mind having them along.

I think I agree with Estu on this one for the most part. Shaman is great but A) there are so damn many of them on the server and B) two shaman in one group is kind of useless. However duos are probably the best exp groups on the server and shaman is the king of duo groups so maybe you're right, but if we're talking strictly the standard 6 man group I think that order is not bad.
