It depends on so many factors that have yet to be determined it's kind of a moot point to discuss at this point. If things play out like live, casters will be king for quite awhile. Casters really shine in classic, specifically necros, mages, and druids. Once Kunark comes out and resists are more easily achievable then hybrids and melee classes become a lot more viable.

It's also entirely situational. For example, pure melees reaaaaaally shine in dungeons, outdoors are a bard, druid, and shamans best friend, etc.

In the end I say you play what you want to play and don't worry about the usefulness of 1v1 combat. This is a social game and most of your time will be spent with other people, so the short comings of a specific class really aren't all that much of a factor in the long run. This is especially true if it's only coin loot and no xp death with pvp because the main focus of pvp in that situation is zone control which you won't typically achieve (or even have a desire to achieve because most content worth fighting over isn't soloable) it by yourself.
