Hi guys! Me and 4-5 other guys are gonna try EQ for the first time together.
So I've a question for you guys out there! What would be your favorite class composition which can last from start to end game (including raids - if it should comes to that).
Only one rule! There can't be 2 or more of the same class.

I haven't read any other posts in the thread, I'll get to those when the boredom of my first day back to work settles in.
That being said, I love this idea!
The fact that you and your buddies are all going to team up is also going to enhance the playing experience for you. I suppose my only question would be, after you've leveled everyone up and commence FarmQuesting, do you think you'll be spending the majority of your time still grouping together or raiding?
You may not even be able to answer that right now.
Assuming you're going to farm things together, I would go with:
ShadowKnight (Tank, FD Puller, Snare, great aggro management)
Cleric (Heals, Res)
Shaman (You'll eventually be able to easily 1 group the +6 neck dragons in WW and you're not getting a better patch heal than Torpor for your tank until that CH hits)
Enchanter OR Bard (Crowd control, mana regen, melee haste -- I'd personally like to see this group with a bard, but if you have someone essentially use their enchanter primarily as a DPS and charm kill, it'll be hard to out-DPS them) -- Also mind that if your whole group isn't together, Enc/Clr and or Enc/Shm are ridiculously powerful duo partners.
Rogue (Deeps)
Monk (Deeps) OR Necromancer (Very versatile. Can deeps, charm kill, twitch cleric, even heal to a minimal degree, summon corpses, etc)
They way I'd pick would be:
Talk to my buddies. See if anyone has a "OOH I WANNA PLAY THAT ONE" urge, and start checking them off the list. For example, if the last guy comes down to the Enchanter/Bard or the Monk/Necro choice, I'd just let that person choose.
Efficiency is great. Playing what you want to play is exponentially more important. I can tell you that I leveled my Wizard because my buddy told me his guild needed Wizards when I started playing again, and I've regretted it since.
I'm looking forward to seeing you guys get started!

Soeki
