That is good to hear! I'm looking to be very useful in groups and also in end game raids, and I hope my class selection will serve me to that end well.
This is one area where your wow experience doesn't translate to EQ. Many of the classes are much less important for raids, but can still go. It also changes over time. A few examples

Rogues -medicore at launch but in velious top DPS
Wizards -top dps at launch but by velious often only used to Port the group there.
Mages -similar just used to Port the group
Enchanters, shaman, druid, bard- just there to buff

They make a lot of those classes face the wall during boss fights(after waiting around 12 hours for it to spawn) - not that fun.

Paladins and SK maybe can off tank stuff sometimes, but they aren't that useful DPS wise (unlike wow where you can change your paladin spec to dps or heal)
