Not sure what to play

Enchanters now... they are powerful, and fragile, and have a feel to them all their own. You can be evil and still illusion up to go anywhere. It is harder to find a CC/Slow slot for your group at the highest levels than any other job. You will be highly sought after for exping, and you can still solo with the best of them, in a very exciting and skill-based fashion.

So what you're saying is I'm likely to be turned away as an iksar necro for groups, or is that not really an issue? I do like to solo, but I also want the possibility to be useful in groups. I don't know if enchanters are my thing though... how are druids and shamans? And is it a bad idea to roll iksar anything due to exp? Like if I rolled an iksar shaman, would it be frequent that people would take a non iksar shaman over me?
