If you want to remain an effective duo without having to look for more people to form a group, which is presumably the case since you went the melee+healer route the first time raound, you'll probably have to do that again. It's technically possible to duo a warrior with a necro or something, but it isn't much fun and has no versatility at all. Kiting stuff around your whole life is boring, the warrior would just be an extra pet for the necro. Warrior+enchanter is even worse, you can't sustain long-term health on a tank with just the berserker line of spells and you'd spend fortunes in components by trying to do it with rune spells. Enchanter spells are also huge aggro. Really, never try to duo a melee with a non-healer and expect the melee to tank. The warrior will run out of HP, and when he does, it'll take fifteen minutes to regenerate them back. Tank+enchanter is not a truly viable duo.

For a warrior, you're probably gonna want a shaman. If you don't specifically dislike playing a shaman, do it. It's one of the best duos in the game if you don't want to rely on something really gimmicky. Druid will also work, but it's just not a strong enough class to match up to the shaman who is basically designed to support melee classes. Cleric is actually the worst healer for a melee duo and only shine when paired with an enchanter (or in a full group or raid, naturally).
