The title of the thread is "best trio for self farm gear."

That means this trio wants to go into dungeons and camp their own gear as they level. They aren't twinked and they aren't shopping in EC for items. This isn't "what trio is best for farming at 60."

The answer is enchanter, cleric, monk. Having the ability to rez starting at 29 is massive for this specific setup/ruleset as deaths are an inevitability.

I will say all iksar shaman/monk/necro would also be good for this. Double FD, double gate, corpse summons / rezzes later on. And since post #3 of this thread is the OP asking if the cleric can be subbed for the shaman, I would probably steer his group towards this setup.

Not nearly as strong in the later stages as clr/enc/monk but a better option if nobody among the trio is capable of piloting a severely under-geared enchanter.

Again, if you understand why Shaman/Monk/Necro is good, you understand why Shaman/Monk/Enchanter is good. You don't need a Cleric while leveling, and their mitigation isn't going to be vastly superior until you get to the endgame. Dying isn't a big deal from 1-50, you can quickly make the XP back.

An undergeared trio is going to kill things lower level than them to make up for the lack of gear. There is no reason to try and tell them they have to camp frenzy in guk when he cons white or yellow to the party. It is nonsense.
