Raid Boss Strategy: Here's a quick and dirty breakdown of the tanks and their raid tanking abilities.

The Damage Reflect self buff can add a significant amount of extra rose zuly hate from the high powered hits given by the raid boss, but any tank can get a similar buf from a Sorcerer, Spell singer, or Warcryer nearby.

Shillien Knights: With an 11 point less base CON than human tanks, SKs usually need to either out level all other alliance tanks by a lot, or use your clout in the alliance to have a turn to tank.

Guard Stance use is a considerable mana drain on the tank and the tank party. However, with a health weapon, +CON, and +HP/CON armor, you can mitigate this issue.
