Enchanters can be fun, but just be warned that the pet nerf does gimp the soloing scene for them. While it's not impossible, you have to work a bit harder to get that full XP. There's also less room for error with an enchanter, if you get into a bind, you'll need to react fast. As said above by others, shamans can take a bit of a beating so it's more forgiving.
