Hey guys, currently i'm running a 6 man team of SK/BRIG/TROUB/ILLI/MYST/INQ and i have them geared in mostly heroic/drinal gear. I'm able to do most heroics by now with couple exceptions (4th boss in WE comes to mind and final couple bosses in HE). I was also able to farm all the trash up the first boss in AoA. I guess my question is where do i go from here? My overall dps is somewhat low, 1.1M on named from what ACT is telling me. I was wondering if should replace the brig with an assassin or another class at this point for some more dps. Also is this pretty much the limit of what i can do at this point? I was contemplating the idea of building another 6 man team (for 12 toons total) but i've never really boxed more then 6 and i'm a little worried about either getting another computer or this thing getting totally out of control. lol. I'm already managing 6 and moving them around from instance to instance is a pain in the behind. If i were to go 12, how would u recommend my 12 man setup with the current 6 i already have. I would have to level 6 new toons on 6 new accounts. Thank You for any info/suggestion/advice you guys might have.
Looking for some advice

I was stuck at a very similar point with my 6man team for a long time. I worked on killing what challenge mobs i could for the occasional upgrades and got as much steward gear (armor and jewelery) as I could while also farming trash in AoA and ST for upgrades there.
Then one day after enough upgrades I was able to 6man my first EM raid mob. First one I killed was the one at the entrance in HE. It is basically just a cycle of upgrading as much as you possibly can from the content you can do until it opens up new content to you.
I am now able to do the first two named in WEx2, the first three in HE, the first 4 in AoA and have recently added teh first named in ST.
Upgrades still come in a steady stream and I am sure this will continue to open up more content for my 6 man team and keep me intrested. I have played with the idea of a second team but for now I am content with what I can do as I am seeing steady improvment on an almost daily basis.

This, you have a mage group setup and no mages, may as well run the troub as a dirge at the very least, and Illy to Coercer will make any power issues easier 1 grouping.You should betray your troub and illy to dirge and coercer.
As for progress, if you can clear all heroic content mobs, try AoA nameds, and HE nameds. First in Altar is quite easy if you just set up auto target and camp spots in a sensible place (I quite like the teleport rooms, little room for kickbacks etc). First in Harrows just has an AE on a 45s Timer or so that if you rotate Equil/DG for, you'll have no issues killing. 2nd/3rd in HE are then both easy too, and 2nd/3rd/4th in Altar are basically all simple too. Just don't be afraid to wipe a bit on new stuff, and expect to burn it all down instantly. Pretty sure my first kill of 1st in Altar was a 30 min kill, as I stacked in 1 corner to always get the eggsacks, and group dps was horrid.
Farm heroic zones for Spirits, get the gear, grab any cheap solo zone loot you see for sale etc, and you'll be geared to a decent level in no time. Add old heroic ST to your farm list too, the prime components make best in slot items still, and the mounts are always good for alts or to sell to buy loot from elsewhere.
