If you're going to do dungeons, a druid is a must. Escorting a melee out of a deep dungeon "Invis just dropped" is more trouble than its worth.
From there ench and cleric are obvious.
I'd rather have a SK for holding aggro/self invis over any other tank.
Rogue for good dps and sneak.
Monk can dps and they have FD if things get scary.

Inviting a druid JUST for the utility of ports is a mistake in a min/max group. Getting to a dungeon/camp is a one time-fixed cost. Having a better DPS toon is far better if you are min/maxing.
Druids are a good learning class though. They do bring utility and some dps, so its not like they are useless (sorry wizards on p99 groups). They are also fun.
For the OP, if you all are new EQ is not an easy game to learn to play. Most of the reason p99 is so easy for many folks is that they have been learning the game for 15+ years. The best way to learn is to group with folks who know what they are doing...since you are 6 manning a full team of newbies that won't happen. I'd suggest playing whatever is fun for you all.
Good luck with this project. It will be a lot of fun if your team perseveres through the harsh learning curve of new players in EQ.
