Tenlaar - That sounds like a great duo and less hectic than solo barding. What would you recommend for bard/sham race for that combo? Not knowing the bard, I'm not sure if they have some end-game restrictions based on their race/deity (I know my halfling druid won't ever get the smexy tunare loot).

Myself, for the bard I'd go agnostic half elf and put all starting points into stamina. No awesome Tunare loot or anything to worry about I'm afraid. With a shaman partner to buff you and Velious gear your physical stats and even charisma will be plenty good and as you level the extra stamina will work up to being an extra +100 hp. Who doesn't want that? I didn't put the points into stamina on my 58 bard and it still bugs me a little after almost seven years.
For the shaman it doesn't really matter so much, if she doesn't want to be an ugly fatty then barbarian or iksar would be fine. Iksar would honestly be easier to deal with than barbarian would with you having a druid that can port her to EJ right there by the FoB zone line whenever she needs to hit the guild or whatever, that's a hell of a lot shorter trip than taking her through the Karanas to Halas. The ogre frontal stun immunity will rarely come into play since she won't be soloing and you'll be able to pull with the bard and hold agro or mez the mob while she debuffs or roots or does whatever to set the mob up for how you're killing at the moment. The ogre frontal stun only really only comes into play when doing risky solo stuff or when shit is hitting the fan, so not the vast majority of play time. Troll and iksar have the same regen, so all troll offers is better physical stats for less wisdom.
