Picking a class for end game?

[Jikai]

Howdy,

I would like some advice on picking a class relative to the current state of the server @ lvl 55+. I'm a group & guild focused player & my favorite part of the game is hanging with some friends or guildies in high level camps, or helping people with getting their epic drops. In other words, I'm not the type to just go solo farm loot for example. So, with that in mind:

(1) How hard is it to find some people to hang out and go to Juggs, HS, SG, Brood Mother, etc? I assume most people go to these places with guildies or just a couple of friends. I want to experience that content again.

(2) Are there any classes that groups need more of at the high level right now? i.e., is it quite obvious that there are plenty of clerics and shamans, so maybe I should pick something else?

I realize that to some people asking this might sound superfluous, but I don't want to roll a cleric only to find out in 8-12 weeks that there are already tons of them and in fact guilds/groups really need a bard, shaman, SK, etc.

I guess most people are going to say, 'just play what you like', so I was going to roll a chanter or cleric, but I would make a bard or something else instead if they are in high demand at end game right now. I can't handle a war, rogue, or monk, though. They're just not my style.

Any thoughts? ty
