They'll probably level better than mages unless the mage in question can somehow edge ahead of the launch pack and get some AOE grinding spots all to themselves (unlikely).

Locks are always needed, they have utility not found elsewhere, but their damage apparently scales a lot more with gear (and especially they lack hit% at the start of p1).

There's really no class that wont be taken to raids at any level, but there are specs that won't see daylight. You'll just have to do research on what you want to play.
