Charms. Snares. Fears. Mana regen. Utility. They might start a lil slow, but any group that can have 5 charmed lets at once is gonna be sick. I do pity the cleric tho.

Barring that, any group with a ranger and a bard will rock. Many of the more popular zones are outdoor dungeons so with harmony, track and bards aoe mez, you can go ham even with crappy gear. Add in a cleric, shaman, enchanter and maybe a monk and you should be able to take on any zone in the game [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Man there are some damn weird ideas in this thread. Its a 16 year old game, it's not a mystery.

You want a Cleric, a Shaman and an Enchanter.

After that it doesn't hugely matter.

A Cleric, Shaman and Enchanter is the basis for so many groups because it trivialises the content without needing a huge amount of concentration (which is a much undervalued consideration in a game which takes hundreds of hours to just level up). And for your set up - because there will be times that people can't play etc - it has the added bonus of only NEEDING two out the three to be nearly fully functional.

It isn't a min-max set up, but thats not what's being asked for. The request is for a group make up that will be functional throughout the game from 1 to 60 and that pretty much means CLR ENC SHM and whatever else. Personally, I'd make your 4th a Monk to tank and pull and your 5th a Rogue to DPS and avoid agro. But pretty much any combination for the last two slots will be fine, even if MNK ROG is optimal.

As for the min max thing, that is a known anwser too. It's MNK, SHM and as many ROG as the spawn supports. This is always the answer to the question, at all levels.

Hmm. For a 5 man group on P99, I'd go with:

1. - One person with Asperger's to handle communications with players from outside your group. You want other players to dislike communicating with your group, so that they go somewhere else rather than try to compromise or negotiate on sharing content.
   
   
2. - One psychotic and narcissistic douchebag to do the pulling. Psychotic so they'll have no moral qualms kill stealing or training people out of cash camps. Narcissistic so that the very idea of someone else "winning" becomes so unpleasant, and so intolerable, that they're willing to break all of the game's rules in order to dominate.
   
   
3. - One reasonably intelligent and charismatic person, well-versed in the art of bullshit. This is the group's frontman. You need him to schmooze up the GM's and win lawyerquest. Also needs to have a good speaking voice for guest appearances on Sirken's stream.
   
   
4. - One basement bum to stay awake and on-point 20 hours a day so you can lock down content and tunnelquest your MQ's effectively. Unemployed, living at home, manic depressive types work best here.
   
   
5. - One ghetto mentality scumbag to handle your RMT sales. Needs to be criminally minded since money laundering and tax free income are both illegal, and of special interest should anyone decide to tip off the IRS. You need a cutthroat type who will stick to $3/USD per 1,000 plat.

I know this can be confusing for a new group of players, but just give it a shot. With this group, you WILL learn 2 compete and become an effective unit from level 1 all the way to endgame raiding.

I got ADD! So I can be the 6th guy! Nice response m8!
