I suppose that's why you only have one level 60 in a 20+ year old game. Your so busy calculating things you forgot to play. You can't learn how to swim without getting in the water.
I don't think you understand how much work would go into building a model to accurately measure each class and their efficiency in different combinations from 1-60. It is far more efficient to learn by feel. You wouldn't even know how to weigh the variables without experience and simulation. Even with a model it would take tons of trial and error and a real sample to measure your accuracy, which you could never get. You are talking nonsense and you don’t know it.

I've played the game for years, and I played it on live from 1999-2005. I have the learning by feel down too. You don't need to play all the classes in the game to understand how the game works, how encounters work, and how other classes work. You are also making a lot of assumptions about what classes I have and haven't played hehe.
You are trying to use the fallacy of argument by authority. Leveling to 60 doesn't mean you've learned a lot about the game. You could have been power leveled to 60 on all those characters while AFKing for all we know. It proves nothing.
You have already shown you don't know what you are talking about if you think Shaman's don't have great damage mitigation. Clerics are obviously better for any of the tougher encounters in the game (6 man group content, raids, etc.), but that is all endgame content.
OP is asking about a trio. Can you trio Xenovorash with a single Cleric and Warrior with only an Enchanter for DPS? Maybe, but it's pretty risky considering you only have 40ish minutes to kill him or you lose your quest progress. The vast majority of trio encounters don't need a Cleric/Warrior, and the ones that do would be safer if you brought an extra friend or two.
