Monk in almost every single non-raid situation.
-Mitigation roughly the same, maybe even higher, than a Paladin or Shadowknight.
-3x as much dps as a paladin or shadow knight
-Pulling ability, mend
-Agro is more than sufficient
You basically get both a tank and a dps.
Warriors are good too.
Also, it's worth mentioning that a Ranger can be a viable compromise between a Pal/SK type tank and a monk. You get a decent amount of DPS and excellent agro management/snap agro. Rangers are incredibly squishy but in some groups that won't be a problem anyway, and it may be worth the extra agro and DPS for quick killing.
