Which paragons belong where, and why?

Might as well ask this since im not expert on all classes, and this'll come in handy for me now and in later ideas to make the game better so as we all know the group requirements system isn't the greatest so I'll ask you guys what would you lable each paragon under, note they can go under more than one.

Healer

Devoted Cleric | Divine Oracle,
Paladin | Oath of Devotion,

Dps

CC

Tank

Great Weapon Fighter | Iron Vanguard,

buffer's

debuffer's

Not Viable paths

You also might need to include feats, which is a major part of toon builds of every class.

Healer

DC Divine Oracle | Anointed Champion
OP Oath of Devotion
SW Hell Bringer | Soul Bringer

Dps

CC

CW Master of Flame | Spellstorm Mage
HR Stormwarden | Pathfinder

Tank

Currently from what I know, please amend it if it's wrong. I forgot about SW changes.

I thought everyone knew which classes were support and which ones were DPS....

A lot of people don't even realize what their own class can do, let alone everyone else's. ... Rangers belong in the buffing catagory also..

A single class isn't just one role they can play multiple depending how they're setup as @kitaar says hr's are buff as well, yet depends how they go about things.

My TR provides some pretty useful Crowd Control on low to mid power PUGs.
Stunning pairs of bone golems on TOTDG is his speciality.
He's turned many bronzes to silver, and silver to gold.

Sw temptation is healer. Hellbringer is dps buffer

You need to add a debuff category. The CW MoF Paragon path is a debuff, as is the DC Divine Oracle. However to further complicate it, CW Renegade feat path can be a buff spec. DC has a feat path that is also debuff, but I forget the name at the moment.

Combat HRs are buffers.

Trying to understand who would benefit from this, but have to say... when I started reading it, I was really hoping it was a "Paragon synergy" thread. iow, Which paragon paths for each class had the most powerful combinations in a five character group....

Ah yeah +1, I would also like to read/see something like this. I have been without a mic for months now and just waiting for Crimbo to get another one, this makes it difficult to keep up with what works best with who.

Someone mentioned that the DC has a feat path that is debuff and I'm curious if anyone knows what it is? I play as a DC and have yet to notice any debuff feats and would like to take a look

Almost forgot about this discussion been busy with the others, if someone wants to take this one over feel free to see if you can merge all this to a new discussion, or write it out down here with the rest, but I won't get around to updating this in a bit so that's up to you guys. ^•^

I would love to see a buff catagory option in the que system. I run a Divine Oracle - Righteous Devoted Cleric that is a pure dps buff build. It does have some healing spells, but last I tested them you would be just as good relying on potions.

I would also love to see some say 6-7 man dungeons that incorporate the buff classes, or off classes. I had a friend that built a GWF as a tank, wasnt strong enough to main tank, but it held its own as an off tank. But theres not really a place for that in current dungeons.

I dont think there are actual feats. Ive never felt my DC is a buff/debuff, except break the spirit which is a debuff as in it reduces armor, but really thats just a dps buff.

My dream team pre mod 10 was a tact GF to super boost AP, devo pally to keep the tank going, buff DC, MoF renegade CW to buff/control and a s/d SW as dps.
