I am interested in:
Necromancer
Bard
Enchanter
Shaman
The last three have buffs, but the problem is which is least common and most needed in Raids? Should I even worry about Raids at all on my first toon in P1999? Should I worry more about getting a foothold on the server?
(I am still open to other suggestions if i am going about this the wrong way)

If you think a necromancer is only pet DPS in a group, you're not looking at the amazing utility the class has. Roots, Fears, Snares, Undead focused lines, FD, Charm, temp mez, Heals, Mana Twitches, Decent Nukes, blah blah. A necro has some form of everything and if you utilize all it's tools you make a terrible group a good one, you can complement and strengthen nearly any role.
If you think a necro is limited to pet DPS stay the hell away from bard. Bard is my main, and my love. You may be a jack of all trades, but if you are willing to perfect the class you can be a master of it all. I have tanked in raids, CC'd fungi king, pulled in HS east....etc etc. If it can be done, a bard can find a way to do it, and do it well. As for your first class being a raid class, if you're willing to stick it out bard is the way to go. They are the most valuable raiding class in the game. Tanks are a dime a dozen, complete heal is complete heal, it's hard to find a competent bard that will stick thru to 60.
As for enc sham. Meh. They're good solo classes and pretty fun in groups. As for raiding the enchanter is GRM and maybe charm. Maybe. Shaman is a buff bot. Both are shit for raiding unless you enjoy buffing.
