The thing is, utility, enchanter /enchanter. Doesn't bring anything new to the table, shaman or cleric brings a ton of utility to the duo. I think enc/sha is superior for leveling but at 60 cleric will let you do the hardest kills. End of the day its all personal preference.
This is definitely one of my pet peeves on p99. The "doesn't bring anything new to the table" argument only really applies when the first class needs synergy from a second class in order to shine. A warrior NEEDS a shaman for haste, slow, buffs, heals. A cleric NEEDS someone to kill things. Etc. An enchanter doesn't need anything. Heals and hp buffs are nice, of course, but they don't enable a chanter to do anything that he couldn't do without them; they're just a safety net. But a second chanter brings a different kind of safety net, doubling up on CC, which would generally be as effective as healing when you've got good players at the keyboard for each of the duos.

So then you're left with 3 duos, all of which are slow starters but powerhouses later on, each of which is played differently and each of which is very effective in the right hands... except the double enchanter duo does much more damage than the other two.
