Question - Which 6-box member should I replace with a BST

[Bingles]

I've just stepped foot into EOK, and my 6-box currently looks like this:

SK
Cleric
Enchanter
Druid
Mage
Wiz

It's a pretty smooth set up and overall I am happy, but I would say the member that contributes the least at this stage is the Druid. I throw up some debuffs and a few nukes, but generally the DPS isn't huge and when I'm grinding the mobs aren't overly threatening to make the debuffs useful.

I've been reading a bit about BST's and they have piqued my interest; to the point where I think I want to add one to my group. One for the good sustained dps, and two foe the regen buffs.

At this stage the only other char which I think could be a candidate to switch for the BST is the Mage, but as I said I'm still leaning towards Druid.

Curious to get anyone else's thoughts who may have run similar combos or have any thoughts opinions on this topic.

Thanks in advance for your help

id replace druid as the bst can be backup heals and you already have wiz for ports
plus tomorrow druids get nerfed again.

Wizard or Druid, depending on if you value the wizards raw dps or the druids huge utility more

Basically, you have two toons that can evac and port in an emergency and that is pretty unnecessary. There are very few places afaik that only one can port but not the other.. mostly just some old zones like hate, so I wouldn't even put that into my consideration (plus if you keep the druid you could always load up the wizard as needed for those).

But yeah, I would get rid of one of the porter/evacer's, depending on which one you think brings less to the table.

If mana regen is an issue still after enchanter + druid skin, keep the druid and the beast mana regen, focus paragon, paragon (and self canni) AND dicho, will probably fix you right up.
