[Vanguard] Questions on starting again - class, race, group size, starting areas etc.

I would go with a melee team and therefore a monk.

Shaman healing is good but DPS is on the low side. I mostly chose the shaman because the bear shaman has endurance regen.

Thanks for the advice Alge.
I got 4 chars loaded up and on the island for testing but ran into a big problem - performance. I figured the comp in my sig would play a game this old easily.
I am playing a big resolution - 3600x1920. That is three 24" monitor in portrait. I can't run 4 instances od Vanguard at medium settings and that res though. The Sli GTX 670's are getting hammered and the cpu is coping it as well. Problem with the CPU is that it has 6 cores but I am running 4 instances - running 3 instances of the game with 2 cores each would help.
I'll try dropping down the res of the Surround screen to see if I get better performance.
If that is no good I can split the monitors and go with the three in Landscape - have the tank and healer on a monitor each and the two DPS on the third monitor.
How are you running 6 instances Alge?
