Grouping: Honestly with skilled players you dont need a healer in your group in anything but a raid. As long as you have a tank class holding aggro you can burn down mobs before they will kill your tank. The possible exception to this is mistmoore castle. But my Ive personally grouped instances in every level bracket and all the 70's blight, unrest, valdoon etc with no healer.

As a sidenote, shadowknights and paladins do not suck in raids nor do monk/bruiser. SK/pallys offtank like champs, handle adds and tank nameds when the main goes down as they are supposed to. Monks and bruisers dps and make great group tanks.

Another sidenote, some rl friends and I trio'd up 3 bruisers to 70 clearing every instance/heroic dungeon minus some DoF/MMC/Unrest when the bosses were even con or higher. Its done, its fun...I guess Im trying to say that EQ 2 has done a great job of not forcing groups to depend on healers to complete instances. You can get them done if you are skilled and creative.
