Help picking a new class

Hi guys I've been playing for around a month now and am about ready to give up on my Imperial Stamplar. I'm only level 33 but I'm finding it quite boring to play and I lack some survivability.

I'd like to play a class, other than Templar, that has better survivability and little more variety in skills. Orc/Redguard Stam DK looks like it'd be more fun but before I go and waste another month I'd like to see if there are any other suggestions? Ultimately I'm only interested in PVE content and I'd like to tank in the end game.

Thanks for any help :)

    so the main problem you will encounter when playing most stamina builds is that there is limited weaponry to make a huge change,

    most run 2h and bow or 2H and dualwield or 2H and S&S,

    I love my magicka NB as you can make different setups,
    I prefer my dualwield, destro staff builds, with resto for PVP

    You can also build a sap tank,

    They are relatively easy to play

    NB is fun. Very good self heal; I use dual wield and bow. Damage from far away and no problems with groups of enemies.
    And the effects of some skills are just looking great ;)

    If you're looking for survivability, yeah, Stamina DK is right up that alley in my experience. I go for two-handed and sword-and-shield. Mine's a Khajiit, but I've heard this is easy mode for just about any race.

    If anything, Stamina DKs might bore you as well, because this build can be so hard to freaking kill. XD
    Living vicariously through my characters.

    My Girls:
    "If you were trapped in your house for, say, a year, how would you pass the time?"

    Nephikah the Houseless, dunmer assassin: "I suppose I could use the break. I have a lot of business holdings now that need management."
    Swum-Many-Waters, elderly argonian healer: "I think that I would enjoy writing a memoir."
    Silh'ki, khajiit warrior-chef: "Would this one be able to go outside, to the nearby river? It's hard to fish without water!"
    Peregrine Huntress, bosmer hunter: "Who is forcing me to stay inside, and where can I find them?"
    Lorenyawe, altmer mechanist: "And why would I want to go outside in the first place? Too much to be done in the workshop."
    Lorelai Magpie, breton master thief: "I'd go nuts. Lucky for me, I have a little experience sneaking out!"
    Rasheda the Burning Heart, redguard knight: "I would continue my training to keep my skills sharp."
    Hex-Eye Azabi, khajiit daedric priestess: "I suppose it would be lucky, then, that I built a shrine to Mephala in my backyard."
    Yngva Stormhammer, nord bandit (reformed...ish): "I hate being inside even when I'm not forced to be. GET. ME. OUT."
    Madam Argentia, vampire dunmer aristocrat: "I suppose it would be more of the same. I have a rather... contentious relationship with the sun."
    Mazie gra-Bolga, orc scout: "Uh... I'd have to house train my bear..."
    Felicia the Wanderer, imperial witch-for-hire: "What Lorelai said."
    Calico Jaka-dra, retired khajiit pirate: "This one would like a rest from her grand adventures. Her jewel shop runs out of stock!"
    Shimmerbeam, blind altmer psijic: "Provided that I am confined to Artaeum, I do not think I will want for things to occupy my time."
    Shauna Blackfire, redguard necromancer: "Sounds like paradise. I hate people."
    Kirniel the Undying, cursed bosmer warrior: "I would feel useless, not being able to fight."
    Echoes-from-Dragons, argonian who thinks she's a dragon: "All the better to count my hoard!"

    Stamina DK - the only gripe I have with this build is no burst DPS apart from WRECKINGBLOWSPAM.

    Great DOT's, awesome survivability and utility for a stam class.
