Most reliable builds from BG1 to ToB? (On a Multiplayer Game)

Hello!

I am one of those guys who used to play Baldur's Gate when I was a teenager. Oh man, I used to have a lot of time back then! With EE, my old group and I decided to give it a full run, from the Inn in Candlekeep to The Throne of Bhaal itself, importing our character over each of the campaigns.

I am aware some things have changed, and now we are able to use Kits from the beginning, which is kinda overwhelming - so many choices, and so many class abilities not kicking in until later levels!

We have a 4-player party, with 2 slots for NPCs; we probably will use Baldur's own NPCs, as we miss some space hamsters. We will be cycling through NPCs in order to get their personal quests. The other players will be playing as a Cavalier, a Dwarf Defender and a Mage.

I want to play something that will make me feel useful in all game stages, either as a hitter, support of something else. I remember certain classes like Monk were awesome in ToB but failed hard in SoA. Some like F/M/T and Archers were incredible until late in SoA, but couldn't keep up in ToB. Assassins and Jesters were very nice for the 5 minutes in SoA before everybody started being immune to their abilities, Clerics were never bad, but never really good, and so on.

Am I wrong here? Is there any build that can actually be useful and enjoyable from 0 to 8 million XP, without lagging behind, being a late bloomer, or dependent on unusual conditions?

In your opinion, which are the most playable and enjoyable level-by-level builds in the game?
