I reckon charge maybe a prob then since im not sure if it worked the same in OF as it does now

A sorc can't do cc, demezz, kite, pre kite, position and interrupt. No freakin way in todays DAoC.
I thought about a debuff grp aswell, they are easy to run vs low rr grps, wich everyone will be in the start, but as soon as enemy tanks get determination, charge, purge and starts do do higher dps you have to balance out your caster grp to a hybrid grp. Talked abit about it in a post above.
But I do believe albs with no petspam will suffer alot.
Just take a fotm hib setup.
2x Druids, one high reg, one high nurture spec ( shears etc ).
1x Bard - 2k range on end song, spd6, instant mezzes, normal aoe mez and BUFFS!. ( also AF buff now with recent changes)
1x BM with charge and determination, MoP - good dps
1x Hero, all heavy tanks are damn nice with the love they had the last years.
1x Champion, instant interrupts/debuffs, snares, good 2h dps, slam with hybrid spec.
1x Eld, interrupt, snares, OK single target nukes, ns, disease, stun
1x Ench, pet, debuff nukes both cold (for eld) and heat (himself), stuns and PBAOE to kill pets/box.
Hib groups will be very potent, mid groups aswell, especially with valk ruining hib pbaoe boxes with ease. Albs as I see it will have very little and if they ain't equal in the interrupt game it will be so hard.
Alb tank group can't afford a minstrel + friar, and they still need:
2x clerics, 1x cc sorc, 1x caba. And if they run anything but a full caster grp they will need a hybrid paladin for the end and celerity in the train.
Thats 5 spots taken by key classes ( tank grp or hybrid grp = pala, full caster u need a minty ).
2 spots left for dps and still you have no source of reliable interruption, I for sure won't play alb on an Origin server
Also keep in mind 2x clerics can not buff a whole group, just not possible.
