Cleric, enchanter, shaman are the ultimate group classes. And not just because they're great in groups, but also because they can kill stuff while waiting on groups (if they even want a group at all! Even clerics are pretty solid solo during classic era, with undead nukes hard to resist and hitting about as efficiently as wizard nukes).
Pure melee like rogues and warriors are good too, but they're totally reliant on groups for exp so if you DON'T find one, you're just sitting there doing nothing.
Mage and necro are also in high demand right now because pet classes bring so much sustained damage to a group.
Hybrid tanks are hit and miss. They've better at keeping aggro on themselves than warriors are, but some groups get scared off by exp penalties, and at really low levels they aren't likely to take hits better than anyone else anyway since they don't have better defensive skills or armor yet.
