My girlfriend will be trying EQ (and video games in general) for the first time soon and I've been trying to find a class to steer her towards that wouldn't be overwhelming but at the same time compliment my ranger since I assume we'll be duoing a bit. When I gave her the list of classes, she picked out a chanter but I think a chanter might be a bit more for a starter toon. So far I've come up with:

- Paladin: Plate for survivability, LoH, rezzes later on, fairly intuitive, can do some light PLing.
- Monk: FD, Mend, good damage output, again can PL at the lower levels. (FD pulling might be a bit much though)
- Necro: Easy.
- Bard: Useful, nice utility, can probably AoE kite with some instruction.

What do you guys think? Anyone have any prior experience with something like this?
