Depends on u.

Fully support char = cleric sub
Great solo char = wizard sub
1vs1 char = warlock sub

All the above is great for pt. A great euro pt will be 2 tanks, 1 cleric, 2 wiz, 2 bards, 1 warlock. So..

Cleric sub = 1 probability to get a pt for cleric, 2 probability for bard = 3 chances.
Wizard sub = 2 probability to get a pt for wizard, 2 probability for bard = 2 chances.
Warlock sub = 1 probability to get a pt for warlock, 2 probability for bard. = 3 chances.

My sub is wizard, so i have the most chances to be in a pt. That's why i party a lot and lvl faster. And when there's no pt, i can solo well with my wizard + noise + speed.

It is up to u how u want to play ur character. Have fun. :)

Your party consists of 9 chars, unless you mean that the last spot gets filled by a wiz or a lock (and maybe the 2nd bard but I'm not sure of that).

Lock has a better PvE survivability vs giants than a wiz, but a wiz will kill faster. Then again a lock's slower kill speed gets negated by the fact that he fills his zerkbar extremely fast.

Oh yeah, my bad. I've edited it. the 3 wiz combo is for the 2nd best setup that is 2 tanks, 1 cleric, 3 wiz and 2 bards.

You edited it incorrectly though; it should have been 4 chances for /wiz.
