If you are asking the question as far as good starter corals for someone to start out with, I wouldnt recommend shying away from anything. I wouldnt of course suggest going and buying high end frags out of the gate, but if you like it, and the rpice is worth it to you go for it.
you will also find that if you can find truly aquacultured corals instead of wild or maricultured they are much less tempermental and easier to keep. They will cost more as a rule, but it is worth it as well as much more rewarding to grow a coral from a frag than to buy it originally as a colony.
Keep your parameters stable and go for it.
I think millies are as easy to keep as anything. Millis and tenius and many stags(not all) specimens have seemed to be some of the tougher ones IME. Some of the thinner branching stuff such as echinatas, lokanis and turakis for a few examples, and as already mentioned any tabling acros can be tougher stuff to keep for sure, but I still wouldnt intentionally shy away from them. They all require more or less the same thing. You will have some losses along the way especially if you keep adding often, thats just the nature of the game.

Of course the slimer is a good one to start with since its hardy and cheap just incase you do manage to kill it.
