With double xp weekend, I have decided to start a caster based team as a side project to my melee based team.
While I feel pretty comfortable with my first four choices (Mage/Necro/Bard/Wizard), I was not sure how to fill out the remaining two slots. My preference would be not to double up on classes (otherwise, I'd probably just use another Mage as one of the two slots)
One thought was to use the last two slots on a Druid and Shaman (in order to gain Atk Debuffs, Slow, more mana regen and more port locations for moving the team around)
One other thought was to go Ranger/Shaman which would make the box a bit light on healing, but I'd still have slow. Ranger's burn cycle could still be decent since ranged, but i'd be giving up melee if I pet tanked and it is my understanding that autofire is about 75% of auto melee attack.
The last thought was to use one of the slots on a real tank and have the mage pet off tank. Healer in that case would probably be a shaman as well.
Anyone have recent experience with a caster team that could recommend a good approach for the last two slots?
Thanks!
