Shaman, cleric, or enchanter. I think you would like the shaman the most because it's not as boring as the cleric gets, and it doesn't take as much to learn like the enchanter class does. Shamans are built tough in terms of survivability (for being a caster class).

I pretty much agree with this, Cleric's are always wanted for groups but they can be incredibly dull at times. If your group is either really good, or really bad you will end up just sitting around a lot of the time.

Enchanters are a lot of fun, have great potential to make money, and are easy to gear up, But if you plan on being a good enchanter it won't be very laid back.

Shamans are arguably the best money making class in the game, great for groups, amazing for soloing if you want to, not too involved. The only down sides to Shaman are they can become a tad annoying with canni dancing, and the gear and spells become very expensive once you reach level 60, but they are insanely strong at high levels so it pretty much counteracts the costs.

My biggest advice though is don't worry about how expensive a class is, pick something you think you will enjoy. Once you start to get near lvl 60 every class will get a little expensive to gear up, but if you enjoy the class it won't matter.

Clerics are great fun when you pair up with an enchanter or bard. You basically enable powerful solo classes to reach even greater heights. Youll also be wanted in bigger groups, but soloing sucks. There are level ranges where soloing is viable (35 to 41 @ hags in unrest) but other than that .. it sucks.

Just play whatever you feel like and do try out multiple characters!
