Sidenote - since you're starting off fresh, the more you can rely on pets and spells instead melee, the better off you are in terms of being a powerhouse. Melee DPS and tanks are great, yes, but only with great gear. But that killing machine charmed pet who has cleric buffs, shaman buffs, and enchanter buffs, who is chewing through shaman-slowed, rooted mobs one at a time while the cleric CHs him and you and your 2 buddies are able to med constantly? He doesn't give a shit if you are all carrying epics and high-end gear. You'll do just as well with your ench wearing a bunch of cheap charisma gear while the shaman sports banded and the cleric has crappy wisdom gear.

Namegen has a very good point about pet classes and pure casters. Every so many levels you are getting a new and better pet or damage spell. Sort of like getting a better Melee weapon every 4 to 6 levels. And the cost is cheap as hell. He is right about the gear also. You can be naked on a Mage or a Necro and do OK even high levels. Takes a lot less time to med also lol.
So a pet class maybe the way to go for people just starting out. Monk can do well without much also in the begining. But now there is like 2 thousand Monk Twinks here.
