I wouldn't worry about the hybrid penality for getting groups. Like Slave said there are very few Tanks around. I have never turned down anyone for a group based on their gear or race or hell even class on here. Like I have said before I don't think I would want 5 Iksar SK's in a group lol but it would be better than no group.
Its not like there is 50 people you can pick from. Like almost everyone of these threads end up is play what class and race you want to play. Playing a class just because you think it will be eaiser to group, or even solo sucks when you figure how much time you are going to spend on that toon to even get it to level 30 let alone 60.
No class on here is just hands down great to play or if that was the case everyone here would be playing it. Druids are the #1 class, probably Shaman #2. God knows we don't need a lot more of them but they are popular for a reason. Play what YOU want. Simple as that.
But I can tell you the hybid thingy can be a bitch at times. I was in Befallen once on my Halfling Cleric in a group of 6. I was like level 10 at the time the tank was a SK Troll level 15 and couple other hybrids in the group. I was in there for like 4 hours and only got half a level and we killed the hell out of mobs. A lot of them conned red to me. So the Hybrid penality killed me and so did having the level 15 person. I can see why some people are picky. But I had a good time. All that counts.
