I didn't say that Fungi King is the end all be all camp. I am simply using it as an example of a camp this group would probably want to do. I doubt you are claiming it is a bad camp though lol.

If you think another example is better, provide one! I have been waiting. Simply saying "your example is bad", and then refusing to provide a better one is a silly argument.

Ench/clr kills puppets in PoM, druid ports around and uses (pet) track to check for Phinny, Tranix, MQables like VP key mobs, other ench kills in SG, group gates and meets up to kill scout, epic mobs.

Swap the druid for a wizard and you unlock plane of hate minis, which this group can easily do.

I actually think you might have convinced me that the wizard is the best 4th member for this group. plus vp robe is 56 free dps for trash which is a totally acceptable tradeoff for gaining mobility for faster sniping.

If the idea is to have a Wizard porting solo players around the world farm crew style, the best composition would be Enchanter/Enchanter/Enchanter/Wizard. You want the best solo class working in 3 separate areas.

I think the issue is we are breaking the thread into two topics: "Best four man group that is in the same zone together" and "Best solo farm crew that can spread out". Those two types of groups operate differently.

Based on how OP was describing their play style with their group, it's pretty clear they were doing the "Best four man group that is in the same zone together" route. Everybody else is assuming this as well, which is why the topic has never turned to thinking about a solo farm crew before.

Not necessarily. If you’re porting up to hate, you will almost certaintly want a cleric. You want one in sleepers as well. I think cleric/enc/enc/wiz is the perfect balance of power and mobility at 60. This thread has been solved for me.

Thanks all!

Ngl druid is better for everything except hate (and sky?). Maybe just bind on safe spot in hate to eliminate need for wizard assistance. Perfectly safe…. It is selfbindable?

You'd want a wizard because of server rules. Need to port up. Besides, wizards are cool, you just need a bit more gear/clickies on them.

Wiz is probably the best option honestly because it opens up Hate sniping.

I believe a non-bard can kite in fear effectively for at least a little while, so in Classic a 4-man with a porter can snipe 8-hour spawn golems to bag tears as well (using Irak as a charm). You can farm tears and sell them to shamans for 100k a pop later!
