Ok, I've decided to put together a poll. I was curious as to what would people's preferences for parties and race/class combo's.



What party would you make if you could go On boss runs. Rather, what is the "ideal" party. Say the best 3 or 4 characters to put in a party. (of course the party will include a slew of lower level characters, but I'm talking about the main ones)



What is the "ideal" pvp party? Say 2-3 characters that would murder well together. The pvp team so to speak.



Last what would you make of the best scripting party. As many characters as you deem worthy.

This post reflects MY opinion. MY opinion has no bearing on YOUR opinion. I don't care about YOUR opinion of MY opinion, so please keep it to yourself. If you find MY opinion to be flawed, there is no need to start a flame war over it.



Anyways.



If I were going on a boss run, I would take a Darkelf Ninja, a Darkelf Bard, a Darkelf Mystic, and a Dwarf Priest. The only reason I say this is because I've had this combo. The priest was 57, the bard 58, ninja 60, and mystic 54. The bard had the highest damage output. I took these four and killed every boss in mod9 minus hanging tree (which now uses my corpses as weapons). The ninja is there for purely combat. Another class might have done well, but I like the ninjas crits (along with bard spells). The bard is there for combat as well as his party spells. The mystic is there for combat, of course, mystics are nice for that. The priest is there for dmer/gdhe and the occasional attack spell if he can afford the mana.



I do not believe in pvp with more than one character, so I'm going to leave it to one, but I'll elaborate.

Lower levels, between 4-40, I would stick with a Darkelf Ninja for pvp. The tracking, bs, and crits help enormously.

Higher levels, 41+, I'd go with a Neko Bard. The bard will probably be out-doing the ninja BS-wise by now, neko has tracking, and the bard has some nifty pvp spells. Lethargy and stun are great. I wouldn't like pvp'ing with a bard below that level because these spells are very likely to fail a lot of the time. If you leth someone in pvp, they move slower, hit less, and miss bs's a lot. Stun them at higher levels and you can get at least a round off before they can do anything. Again, this is all opinion, as rangers and such are great at pvp in later levels due to their own characteristics, but I like bards =)



With a scripting party of a Darkelf Ninja, Darkelf Bard, and Dwarf Priest, I was able to pull 1.4m/hr out of stone giants a piece in the upper-40s level-wise. The bard/ninja one rounded the giants, and the priest used grhe on a regular basis, with the occasional godheal. The priest did attack, just to get exp. I occasionally turned him off just to get my 2.2m/hr on the other two chars. I wouldn't go with more than 4 chars scripting, unless they are a lot lower than they should be in the area. Four should be enough to pull the max out of an area.



My opinions are biased, as I'm just going from personal experience. I put no thought into this thread, other than what I've done in the past.

bump:afire1:







For the boss runs I chose a Kang Warrior (just because they are so fun and sick at lvl 50), Delf Ninja definately, Neko Ranger or mystic even though they are extremely high in the exp table they always seemed to be worth it, maybe not neko, maybe even human. and for a fourth member I chose a Priest indefinately, because without a priest everyone is fucked. That's what makes priests the most important class and the worst to script if you only have 1 character. So it's a KangWarrior/DelfNinja/NekoRanger(orMystic)/Any Race Priest. Together I've never had a problem with bosses and this covers most aspects of fighting.



For Pvp I would have to only pick 1 class too, I would say a Nekojin Witchhunter at a high lvl think about it. They have the Backstabs, Armour, Sick combat and Tracking. They definately never suck either but getting to lvl 30 can be rather tedious. But all in all think about it, the ultimate murderer.



As for a scripting party I've never been picky, I can loop any party good together, I think a Cleric,Ranger(they are my favorite class) And druid have always worked well together, the cleric could always afford to heal people and the Ranger could rhel enough to make resting not take long at all



Anyways I bumped this post cuz ray is nutz with the MadPosts. Biznitch >weg ray<

I don't really feel like justifying/explaining my answers so I'll just state what I would use for something like the above scenarios.



*agree to terms of Speeds post before reading and/or bitching*



Bosses--Gnome Druid, Dwarf Warrior, Elf Priest, D-Elf Ninja

PvP--Goblin Mage, Neko Druid, D-Elf Ranger (run by separate people)

Scriptin--Boss run chars minus Ninja.

4 Halfling Priests.

laugh, they would probably do pretty well too.
