Question - Group Advice

[DallasAg]

So I have a team of 115s that have maxed out AAs. I've been running with 6 gold accounts but I am considering dropping down to 3 gold and three FTP accounts. My group makeup is:

1) Paladin - will remain gold
2) Shaman Healer
3) Bard
4) Berserker
5) Berserker
6) Rogue

I am also planning to add other toons to these 6 accounts to round out my game play. My first question is which account would be best to keep gold? I was thinking I should keep the Tank, Healer, CC all gold but I've read some input on here that it is better to keep my DPS accounts gold and have the CC and healer go FTP? What's your thoughts about it?

My other question kind of relates to the first. I want to add some additional toons (Enchanter and Magician) and I was thinking I would add the Enchanter to the Bard account (which would be a gold account in my initial plan). Does that change the decision on which accounts to keep gold or not?

healers you can get by as f2p (pop a krono to get AAs and then let f2p)
tanks definitely gold - need them augs
cc - depends on if you need the augs for stats/ac/hps so they don't get insta exploded
melee dps I would gold as well if you can
caster dps - you can get by with f2p - unless relying heavy on pet dps, then summoners you really want gold for good pet summon focus

you can not account to account transfer any longer, and likely no more evarrr. because of this i would recommend any toons you're going to put effort into, to make on another account.

So best to just create new accounts vs. adding additional toons it sounds like. I'll go that route other than for some heroic characters.

For the gold vs. FTP accounts, it looks like Tank, DPS, CC in that order for my current team makeup.

Problem with adding new accounts is paying for the expansion each year, at least for me.
