Default Which Duo to Choose?

My buddy I are looking to play together and are analyzing a few duo combinations. We've played solo on the server on and off a little bit over the last year, and we both had experience in Kunark during live. For our solo play we both just did bard aoe kiting. Something endgame viable would be great, I recently vacated another project (diff game) where I was raiding 3 or 4 nights a week.

I know the most obvious answer: "Play what interests you/what you enjoy". But the fact is we really don't know how interesting or enjoyable these combinations are, or if they will get better or worse with time. Hence why I'm looking for insight.

He's interested in doing a shaman, I'm game for just about anything. The one issue is we really don't want anything that's dependent on plat, because we have none.

The most obvious choice is shaman/monk, which is fine, I had a lot of experience as a monk 15 years ago. He's probably going to be an ogre so he would be able to loot for 2 of us. But I don't know how effective a badly geared monk would be.

Option 2 would be enchanter/shaman. I know this has great synergy at 60, but I'm unsure how it scales up till then. Enchanters seem fun, but I'm sure there's a ton of them. At least enchanters aren't gear dependent, not sure about the cost of spells though.

Option 3 would be bard/bard, we already have bards, just use them together. Could be fun. But we'd probably never get into a group together if we wanted to play with others. Probably raid viable, albeit painful.

And I'd consider just about anything else out there if anyone has suggestions. As long as it's viable on a budget and has pretty good leveling speed.
