I am new to the forum and am glad to have discovered it. I have found some very helpful posts from just reading over a few threads for a few minutes. Going to go with the title of the thread and explain my 6 person boxed group and why.

Pally- Tank that needs little attention. I went with the Pally over a SK for two reasons. The main reason is Amends, I can put it on my dirge and not have to worry about any toon generating too much hate. The other reason is I run with one healer, the pally group heals help get the casters back to full health after AoE attacks.

Templar- My healer of choice. I ran with a warden in this position when I was leveling up my toons but found that he requires way too much attention to keep the tank alive in TSO encounters. Pre pull I cast repent and the group reactive, I usually dont have to do anything else unless I get adds or it its a nasty/named mob. I wish this toon had better AA choices but the buffs he gives are very nice.

Illy- Love this toon, with myth the group does not run out of power. IA for the dirge, TC for the coercer + spell proc on pally, Illy and Coercer.

Coercer- Good caster dps, hate buff for the tank, dps buff for the Pally, dirge and troub. Coercive Healing for the templar and manaward on the MT if things get too bad. I have thought about switching this toon to a warlock or wizzy but he just does great dps with very little effort.

Dirge- My main, and best geared toon. There are better classes to fill this spot but this toon is max AA and geared very well. The debuffs that he gives, attack speed, resists, mitigation, STR/AGI make things much easier. The defensive buffs he has parry (with mitigation AA) and stoneskin also help alot. I have a mid 50s defiler on this account, I may get him to 80 one day to replace the dirge on really tough zones.

Troub-My new toon to the mix when I went from 5 to 6 toons. He is not 80 yet and is ~100AA so his usefulness is not all that great yet. Once he is able to upgrade his defensive song with the mitigation AA and get upbeat temp to put on the Illy I think he will be a good addition. The group wide spell proc buff and the deagro song is nice for the casters add the +defence song for the tank and a few other toons and he works out ok.

I have thought about switching the pally to a SK once the templar is geared well enough to keep the low HP toons up by himself. I also may end up switching the Coercer out with a Lock/Wizzy, but I just dont have the desire to lvl another toon right now. Let me know what you guys think, I see some excellent posts and would welcome any comments.
