Best duo with bard in dungeons

[Varren]

Hi all, I am getting my RL pal to try out r99. He wants to be a bard, since it fits with his RP and play style. I'm wondering what a good class to partner with him would be. We are not interested in doing big ae kites or anything like that, and will probably be mostly hunting in dungeons.

I have considered necro and chanter. Perhaps sk? Shaman seems like it might be lacking dps?

Thanks for your opinions.
