I agree with all Meadow has written and have a few thoughts of my own to add, or re-add as the case may be since I sent them already but as Meadow wisely pointed out, this site needs some life.
Warden would be the choice, Furies are bad Healers, and Shamans are even worse.
Shamen excel at debuffing and warding but cant keep up with the damage a tankly type will take.
Furies excel at Damage but cant keep up with the damage a tankly type will take.
Wardens suck at damage but have decent control abilities, AoE root, snare etc, and are excellent healers. Stackable regens multiple target heals, multi-target regens and some nice damage spells that debuff to boot.
Since you've done the templar thing I assume you are looking for another healing class and Wardens are the second in line, no one beats a Templar for healing but as you know you're damage against most critters takes a while to pile up. Wardens however can solo quite effectively, I found out I can take things tanks of my same level cant, it takes longer but I can do it and they cant, thats a critical difference in my view.
I dont know alot about Monks but they are soft targets but do great damage, I would hazard a guess that a Monk could pour out enough damage that a Warden with their second rate healing could keep up long enough to kill a critter. Of course a harder tank type would work better, a Guardian or Pally would be an excellent pair with a Warden.
I would be very interested to see what a Warden / Necro combo could do, it sounds like a very doable combo.
But thats just my opinion.
