The interesting thing about EQ is that the defensive classes are much more interesting/harder to play than the offensive ones. It doesn't take much to hit auto attack, cast ice comet, or ask your pet to go beat on something; its substantially harder to split camps and CC adds. So the strongest group classes are the defensive classes, the ones that keep you alive, and the ones with the best group buffs.
So I think Enchanter and Bard are the best group classes, followed at some distance by Shaman and Monk. This is why I actually think Enchanter/Monk is a fabulous duo. Sure you need a healer, but you can get by with any scrub there.
