What?! How could someone as pro and knowledgable as you get kicked? What a crazy world it is.

Maybe he was a sage archer...

Clerics, They SUCK! No one ever needs them. Waste of time even playing that class.

I meant hardest class of the individual looking to get in a squad. Not the squad looking for that class. I probably worded the question wrong b:surrender

If you say that I would say either what Kris said about Venos without hercs or Psychics. b:surrender

Mage, pure vit barb, veno without a herc, and psys are pretty equal I'd say.


But if I had to pick one I would say mage, Psy DPS is a little bit higher, barbs can devour, and venos can amp.

As a cleric, I find it really hard to find a squad. I don't have claws or -interval gear, so nobody thinks I can be of any use. Apparently pots and sins have eliminated the need for a healer.

Weird I prefer have a veno (even if dont have herc) in squad to a sin or a wiz, venos can lure, make good damage, have that debuff that increase damage and hey they have a pet so you have 2 in 1 members in your squad, in game are very goods combat pets for venos, herc is no the only one.

In personal i hate sins in squad hate this agro stolen....

Psy's hand down imo. Though close run in with wiz but I give wiz the bump up because they're wanted for rb. after reading about hercless veno's I don't think thats entirely true, since instances like lower lvl bh's, rb, and nirvana. They're not expected to have herc or really don't need one (though veno's are a dime a dozen as one person said).

Well I've never had issues getting squad, but apparently this thread is telling me I'm wrong and I'm horrible at getting them.


The only disadvantage a Psychic has with getting invites to a squad is that people are bloody ignorant about the class, and thus may be more likely to invite a class they actually know something about. I have run into a few squads where people were absolutely clueless about what a Psy does and chose to invite a more "normal" class instead because they knew what they were getting.


Otherwise Psys are excellent AOEers (I can pullm aggro from a Zhenning wizard), pretty good support (an AOE heal spell over time, a buff to increase effects of heals, debuffs to quickly kill a mob/absolutely nerf it's casting rate, buffs that allow us to pull aggro off of others and stay alive while doing so, white voodoo often allows a Psy to hold a boss for a fallen squad just as easily as a barb would), have better DPS than a wizzie (best magical DPS in the game) and have a 6 second AOE stun just like Blademasters: two members in a squad with 6 second AOE stun is quite powerful. Also, on occassion, Soulburn will absolutely **** specific opponents. A great example is hitting the BIG *** SLASH boss in FC with Soulburn just before he does his big *** slash. So why would a Psychic be the last pick?


A Psychic friend and I have solo'ed bosses before just between the two of us. Between our stuns and Psy will, we didn't need a cleric because we never got hit.

Wiz, Cuz we have less Aoe skills and Some skills requires 1 or 2 chi.

Depends which instance. Barbs are replaced by bms, sins for tanking. For some instances only one cleric or none is being taken in squad. Psychics skills aren't well known what makes it harder for them. Sin may be seen as too squishy for some players. Venos have problems as well. Wizzies don't have comparable dps with sins,bms,barbs,archers. Bms have a good time even if they aren't 4+ aps but someties there are too many of them. Psychics and wizzies are important in TW but since there is less incentive to do them especially these two classes may have a hard time.

Depends entirely on the instance.

I see alot of RB delta squads (not the sissy BH squads, but real wave5 and up) begging for a wiz for hours (mostly when I do NOT have time for a delta, since I still need my wave 5b:surrender )
A GOOD wizzy for delta is almost impossible to get.
On the other hand veno's (or sins) have an impossible task getting into delta. There's a ton of em, only 1 job for them on the squad (so either veno, or sin, or an extra zhenner/BM). If I had to choise I'd pick sin last, veno first, and extra zhenner 2nd. Only reason to get a sin over a zhenner would be bonus beans

Outside of delta.... Well FC needs zhenners, wizzy is a good zhenner (a sage wizzy can through DB every room without even dropping below 2 sparks).

Other than those 2, specially with double drops. Almost impossible. Though simply TT2-3 runs generaly just take any DD's they can get, nirvana and 3-x is almost impossible for us wizzys.

And psy's. I think psy's have it even worse
