    What is the most OP party composition for 2:2:4 raids?

    Pretty self explanatory but to further simplify; 2 tanks, 2 healers, and 4 DPS, which is comprised of 2 melee DPS and 2 Ranged DPS. Also no 2 same jobs in these compositions. Also wait until Stormblood is out to put in RDM and SAM.

    Example:

    Tank 1: PLD
    Tank 2: DRK
    Healer 1: AST
    Healer 2: SCH
    Melee DPS 1: DRG
    Melee DPS 2: NIN
    Ranged DPS 1: MAC
    Ranged DPS 2: SMN


    Not sure if anyone actually tried this composition with avg. ilvl 270 for all 8 player raids, including Coils of Bahamut synched, but seems like more fun topic to talk about. Also no derailing subject.

    EDIT: also ALL WAR are broken since FF1 speedruns on youtube already show how OP they are, and do not fill in the other roles except melee DPS, and against the rules I placed for this topic I have listed.

    Right now I'd say it's close to

    Tank: WAR
    Tank: DRK
    Healer: AST
    Healer: SCH
    Melee DPS: NIN
    Melee DPS: DRG
    Ranged DPS: SMN
    Ranged DPS: BRD

    It's this. This comp gets the fastest kills in Savage content. It's the synergy between the jobs that makes it strong.
