Hey all thanks for the replies, I kind of figured Enchanter would be the best one all around however Ive got an Enchanter on Red and don't really have much desire to roll another one. The Mage sounded pretty nice and laid back, and I am actually considering that if I don't got a melee.
However like someone mentioned earlier, I am a bit established with $$$ on the server since I been here a while. Not super rich but Ive got a fungi, cof and random odds and ends, so I just figured it would make sense to make use out of those types of items, which is why I figured Warrior at first.
Main concern with the warrior though is there not being any snap aggro and tanking apparently is pretty difficult as a warrior because of it? I remember when grouping with warriors before, the rogue or someone would pull aggro and the warrior would just be yelling "stop attacking! give me a minute!!!" while praying to get a weapon proc lol. I suppose in a duo aggro wouldnt be much of an issue, however once we start grouping, wouldnt it be come a problem?
Also little side question, do warriors get much better in velious, or kind of stay the same?

A Warrior with Fungi and CoF isn't even going to need a Cleric until level 40 or so. Your Cleric friend will probably be bored stiff until then, and by the 40s and 50s the Cleric/Warrior duo really starts to lose effectiveness (higher mob HP) and you'll need to start forming groups anyway.
The Warrior is really solid come Velious, but that only matters if you intend to take him all the way to 60 and gear him up. It sounded like you just wanted a character to enjoy leveling with your friend, though, which changes the calculus a bit. If you aren't for sure going to beeline to 60, I think the Warrior loses a lot of appeal. Say you get bogged down in level 54 and start to get bored with the character. What can you do with a level 54 Warrior? Not a whole hell of a lot. How about a 54 Mage, though? Perfect to park at Seafuries or any number of money camps to jump on when you're bored, or use to PL friends with.
Basically, the Warrior really has nothing to offer except endgame raid tanking. If you aren't shooting for that, there's no point playing one since they aren't really good for much else.
