druid can get you from rags to riches faster than other classes, just join dial a port guild. leveling will suck until 14 (charm), and becomes easy at 34 (quadding). even if you don't want to continue leveling a druid past, say, 44 (all teleports), the character will be useful forever for item transfers, camping certain items, buying spells, using harmony, etc.
for soloing hard stuff without gear being a factor: shaman/enchanter
