If you want to play a tank, just play Paladin instead of Shadowknight. Paladins are pretty at good raiding (unique hp buff, loh, FTE squad), and they are really good at grouping as well. They can't really pull in any special way like SKs, but there are a lot of monks on this server anyway.
Paladins are great at snap aggro, and they can save groupmate's lives very easy. Paladin/Enchanter work great together in a group.
Paladins tend to be the cheapest tank to gear as well. Their Epic looks cool, but its crap compared to Velious weapons (ones that are easy to get in a raid guild).
Id probably roll Half Elf just to look cool. But Dwarf has the best stats.

This. I'd definitely roll a Paladin over SK.
The only viable raid tank is Warrior, though.
Bard is an excellent choice as a first character, too. They're versatile in groups, not very gear dependent, and you have the option to swarm kite solo if you just wanna kick it by yourself.
And yes, Ranger is seen as a rather dead class...but I know a few capable players that make the class work.
