What is the best class?

What is the best class?
I searched the forums for a thread to no avail.
We have all heard the argument, "play what suits you."
"play what works for you." "play what you get the most enjoyment out of." "there is no best class."
nearly all of us are playing either what we have reasoned to be the best class, or to discover what is the best class.
But the question still remains;

What is the best class?

Just as a side note, I played a ranger for 10 years

@OP What is your playstyle? I will tell you what I think the best class would be for you.

tank: warrior/SK
healing: cleric
support: enchanter/bard
soloing: enchanter/shaman/necro
power leveling: bard/druid
dps: rogue/monk

ranger/paladin/mage/wizard are generally bad. any non-caster class requires external source of platinum/gear income to function at all. shamans are the only gear-dependent caster

Shaman is the best class in EQ, easily.

Great in groups, best at soloing, tons of utility, a unique tradeskill. No other class hits all points. Shaman by far has the least drawbacks and the most positives.

Nobody checks all points? Well i beg to differ for the enchanter class

Great in groups: check (arguably even better than shaman)
Best at soloing: Just check solo artist challenge. Shaman great, enchanter even better.
Tons of utility: Check
Unique tradeskill: Well, for Jewelcraft you need at least the help of an enchanter. And if you just consider gnome enchanters, you will get tinkering as well which is not available for any shaman.

Btw.: This is the reason why you see so many shamans and enchanters on the server.

This thread is a breeding grounds for "best" arguments.
It's all about ones opinion and their play style. There is no 1 class beats all. EQ is oldschool it has that holy trinity feeling. Healer + Tank + DPS
Sure some classes do a good job at 2 or even all 3 of these but they will never beat 3 players who play classes designed for these roles.
Group based PVM.
