So I know the answers are: play whatever's the most fun, or the game is easy most anything works. But I'm still curious to get peoples' opinions on how I might set up my groups with the characters I have (or close).
I have 12 different classes all mid 80s:
shd, pal, cle, shm, dru, brd, enc, mag, nec, bst, mnk, rng
I'd like to make 2 regular groups out of these classes which are around the same power level for doing typical group content. Currently I have them like this:
1. shd, shm, cle, brd, mnk, rng
2. pal, dru, enc, bst, mag, nec
This setup feels ok, neither group min maxed but they're kind of comparable in power. Looking for opinions on:
1. If you had to use these 12 characters specifically, how would you balance them into two similarly powered groups.
2. If you could switch out 1 or 2 characters for other classes, what would they be and what would the final groups look like?
The cleric kind of feels like the weak link to me, not without value but the shaman is usually capable enough to heal and I have 4 other rezzers. The dru was my early choice to sub out but it's proven to do pretty well in the caster group and I really appreciate the ports. My typical thoughts for a replacement would be a 2nd bst (i love this class), 2nd bard, 2nd mage, or a wiz (though ideally he'd be in a separate group from the dru and that might be tricky). I know ber is probably a sensible choice but I tend to shy away from pure phys dps (on that note the rng is probably a weak link but I have a soft spot for him).
