So my group just unlocked Arueshalae and we decided to add a 6th player to play as Arueshalae. However, we are discussing recently, to forego Arueshalae to prevent overlap.
Currently we have:
Inqusitor
Ranger
Bloodrager
Paladin
Sorcerer
I would like to know two things:
1st. Do we desperately need to diversify? We would have 3 archers (though the Inqusitor can go partially melee) and 2 charisma people. Also is Arueshalae so powerful, that she will overpower our need to diversify?
2nd. Does the story have Arueshalae exclusive mechanics. If so, that would be a strong arguement to have Arueshalae.
Arueshalae is pretty fun to play. She gets a ton of blessings. Her evasion and support powers are really useful and her resistance to fire damage will be super useful for the scenarios with the Molten Pool location. Also, the disable skill will come in handy later in the AP.
That being said, 6 players can get pretty hairy in certain scenarios so your milage may vary.
