I actually really enjoy playing a druid. He's not really a money-maker right now but he's better at it than my cleric, and he's very self-sufficient besides. I admit I initially started a druid thinking it might make more money to fund my cleric, but the class is fun to play in its own right if that's what your playing style matches. I like being able to do more than root and nuke, traveling is easier, I have 24/7 access to SoW, I can snare, I can root, I can turn into a wolf, I can turn into a tree, I can hide, I can forage, I can bind myself, etc. The big variety matches my personality (I too am a jack-of-all-trades IRL) so I'm having a lot of fun. I'm considering RPing and yelling at everyone I see killing bears in Qeynos Hills.
Enchanter is fun but I haven't gotten very far on mine yet. Charm kiting spices up your life from what I've seen of higher level chanters. Monk bored me a little when I tried it out. I think for raiding, if you want to see more of the places you're in, you should go monk and learn to pull really well so you can go running all over creation. Casters tend to park themselves in one spot and not see much of anything besides what gets dragged into camp.
