With Darkness Rising soon out, how will you subclass your different characters? Will you subclass for soloability in pve (for farming f.ex.) or for soloability in rvr, or for group rvr etc? Different for classic and toa servers?

(there are some small errors ive noticed like the second grp heal not being the right value etc, or so i think at least)
Personaly im thinking (writing it as subclass-line-ability in line).
mid/exc (buffbot server
)
Healer - Viking 2-5, for an anytime style to kill pets and such with, or hit people that run by you etc, as well as the parry buff, and melee resistance enhancement buff. I have read reports that the parry buff might currently be broken though, anyone know of this? If it is then maybe Viking 3-5 tbh, for the shield style with medium defence and ablative buff.
Shadowblade - Seer 2-5, for groupheals, and magic resistance buffs (nice to rebuff in the field), and the melee insta 5% resistance buff. Possibly, if i didnt use a buffbot id go with Seer 4-4 and Seer 2-1 instead for some basic buffing ability, although since everyone else will be buffboted it would likely be of very limited use (maybe ok for stealthzerging but then someone usually has a bb anyway).
Thane - For soloing it would likely be best to spec same as sb, for a group thane subclass likely doesnt matter one bit really (shouldnt have to start healing etc, and already has better magic damage than what subclassing offers, and healers will have better resists etc - although the resist line might still be nice if missing an aughealer or so).
Warrior - Havent played this in years in rvr but thinking maybe Mystic 1-5 actually, for a spell to interupt with (after throw weapon etc) that also has cold debuff for your casters, and some general ranged damage for tower/keep fights etc, even if its gimped it will always leach some rp. Otherwise i guess Seer 2-5 is always a viable choise for any class that can take it.
hib/pryd (buffbot server
)
Vampiir - Way of Nature 2-5 (resists r'us) or possibly Way of Nature 2-4 and Way of the Grove 4-1 (10% haste) if no access to buffbot. Thinking mostly solo vampiir here, for groups i guess Nature 2-5 still for the melee abs buff.
Alb/Glast (non buffbot server
)
Heretic - Diciple 5-5 for self dex/qui and different debuffs, or Fighter 2-5 for parry buff and abs buff (if the abs buff stacks with heretic self abs buff, and the parry buff actually works).
