Don't sleep on monk. Pretty solid starter class, doesn't need much gear, has self healing and FD. I guess a kinda big downside is you can't make an iksar one yet, but at 60 in velious a human monk is far from the worst race/class combo you could be.

People are way too hung up on iksar for monk. Monk has a 20% class penalty on green so with the iksar racial penalty you're a full on hybrid if you wait for iksar and you're already behind on leveling. The people who have 50 monks are getting geared up right now and will be 60 way faster than most people rolling a fresh lizard monk.
You notice there's tons and tons of necros due to the power level of the class, despite iksar being far more potent for necro than for monk. But when it comes to monk there's this absurd insistence by the player base that they just "can't" do a non-iksar. | ||

A bard can solo insanely well in outdoor zones, can play various different roles in a group as needed (puller, mana battery, group DPS machine, CC) and with track you're also nicely set up for certain outdoor random spawns. When Kunark comes out you'll be able to do hunter/forager cycle for example. And all you need are some cheap instruments.

I'd also like to point out, that you listed 3 melee classes and bard, which is for most intents and purposes a caster. So it will play much much different from the other melees you listed. If you want to truly be a melee, I'd avoid bard. Another poster also mentioned monk, which wouldn't be a bad melee choice as well. | |||||

Tanks have to be somewhat geared especially warriors and enchanters are kinda wack to play if you new =) | |||

I also suggest a bard for a class you don't find in every game. Lays way different than every other class. Worth their weight in play in the raiding game. A good bard will "make" an exp group. As is eluded to by an above poster the bar isn't high since there aren't very many highly-skilled bards.
As with any core class, it's hard to get a valuable reputation in the group scene if you can't dedicate chunks of time to paying attention to the group. If your kids/girlfriend/wife/mistress is going to be bugging you every 15 minutes roll a wizard to make for a less stressful playing experience. You can quad with log up, so you can make progress while you wait for groups. Similar to druids in some aspect, but a wizard is highly sought after stackable dps in the kunark raid game.

Stay away from any of the hybrid classes IMO as a new player (Ranger/SK/Pal/Bard) - other than that every class is generally useful. Not that the hybrids arnt there is just going to be a resurgence of hybrid hate the second Kunark launches and you will find it more difficult to group.
The "elite min/max group" that will come about in the very near future is Warrior, Monk, Enchanter, Cleric, Rogue, Shaman. Not to say the other classes are not powerful or useful but this is the meta group for Kunark.
