Personaly I run Warrior, Shaman, Cleric and Ranger along with a rogue bot. I have several other toons to add if needed, the bard being the most common. This set up works in most situations for my playstyle. My warrior is a good part of my DPS where with the knight classes they tend to hit about as hard as a moss snake, thus if I were to change my warrior to a knight I would need to substitute one of my healers for something a bit more destructive.
Think about this when choosing a tank for your box team.
Palladin: Purely Defensive, very low DPS (proc's make up most of it) but very hard to kill if your working them right and are probably the best tank post T6 for personal survivability.
Shadow Knight: Agro Kings, DPS is still very low but they can hold agro on groups of mobs like no other.
Warrior: Good DPS and the best single target agro and damage mitigation but no Fear Resistance, wich is big on several fights and very little chance of holding agro on several mobs. They are the perfect AFK tank for box'ers.
All in all there isnt a bad tank class if they are geared right, but personaly I dont think there is a best for all situations.
