Nooby Druid or Nec

[Nytch]

I play a wiz on Blue but get bored (origionally from SZ) I want to try out Red and thinking about rolling a druid since they are a tad less gear dependant and can solo pretty well. I also thought about Necro but hear they are pretty terrible PvP. I played on the Newt team so I have no experience with Necro's to know if this is true. Since I wont know anyone to when i start would druid be a decent choice?
