Strongest Duo and Trio
Hello everyone just out of curiosity, what do you think are the strongest Duo and Trio options assuming high RR.
My picks would be:
Bard + Mentalist
Bard + Mentalist + Eld
I think Bard is very strong in small man because SOS, strong CC and Sojo is all on one class.
Looking forward to your picks.

That’s impossible. Speed wraps, Disease, CC, NS, Stun. Mid trio definitely can’t kill it
Edit: as Triq said, throw a VW in place of the Eld and you'll stand a much better chance.
I don't see how a skald valk healer trio loses to bard ment Eld.
A buffed pet can really make a difference in small man scenarios, cuz it adds another person to kill/fight.

So hib would be bard+vw/champ+ment/ani/chanter
Mid
Healer + bd/sm + valk
Alb
Sorc + necro + pally (two lifetap classes, don't really need a main healer)
Instant amnesia is ok but you will never lock down anyone who MoCs unlike a Healer or Sorcerer. Granted, you can run a Mentalist and accomplish the same thing. Crescendo isn't as great as it used to be and does nothing in a Speed Warp. SoS is generally used as a means to reset a fight unless you're running tank heavy. Healers also get a root so that's a moot point (17 seconds doesn't amount to much after resists and other CC reducing effects).
Don't get me wrong. Bard is a strong class. But paper DAoC never reflects reality here simply because everyone plays at a different skill level and a good/bad hit can win/cost a fight. You also have little control over how many players you're up against unless you're setting up fights. Shoke has the right idea on what to look for when making a small man. All three realms are competent in this area.
