I am going to say shadowknight + ranger + rogue in an open zone = ranger snares, shadowknight fears and sicks pet, rogue destroys everything.

Mix in a shaman OR a bard. and gg HGs or something.

Fact. On live my bard would kill 2 HG's at a time with this bad boy. Never left home without it!

IDK this just piqued my IRL ruminations about how our military would probably create deep insertion hit squads into the enemy ranks via HALO if everquest was real

its not tho

i'm just being a nerd

Bard + 5 rogues.
Bard aggro kites and hastes 5 rogues once mob dies instantly group can move at super speed to next mob.

Something I observed in era but it didn't involved 2 HGs. 3 Spawn in NK, how do you deal with the third one when none of your songs (minus Charm since it hits things much higher level) will stick and you can't melee it down before it kills you.

My bard on blue stayed here from 27 til sometime in the 40s.

It only takes 2 griffons to beat down the HG ,and there are plenty of griffons. if you are in the right era, a rabid griffon is perfect.
FYI, you will get a lot of charm resists if you try as early as 27 to get the HG's. it may be a lot less resistible than most bard songs, but it does still get resisted by reds. but, YMMV.

Didn't involve griffins or charming any other things.

Just the HG, at the right time.

6 enchanter Dictating some higher level Kael giants? Won't last for very long but man, the DPS during that time.

You don't really need the ranger unless the fights go long and downtime for sk medding halts the pulls. That said, if strictly a melee trio having a sow and track class is really nice. Plus if kunark+ the ranger can pick up a Swarmcaller for almost nothing and now you have a proc slower.

I was in a stables group in City of Mist once with 4x rogues, one bard, one enchanter. It was glorious. We (rogues) just shared the tanking around and nothing survived much past the third round of quadruple hasted backstabs

We did something similar at the temple once. Five monks, one shaman and a pile of dead mobs.

I remember being in a group of 5 rangers and 1 not ranger (cleric?) at hands in KC a couple years back (when the entire server was working on their ranger alts). Was good fun.

Also did 5 mages and ranger. Also fun. We need to work on less dynamic groups. Spamming the same class is funny.
