Hi,

Since u're running a hybrid party, I'd recommend dropping the bard coz it peaks and plateaus much earlier than the rest. Unless u want to switch it to a ranger...then you can drop the ranger. Then I'd replace that with a faerie ninja coz the CoC is unbelievable. But that's just my opinion =)

I kindof have a similar party. Mine's

Human Samurai - LS, Enchanted Wakizashi
Faerie Ninja - CoC, Winterwand
Human Monk - MA, Zaitoichi Bo
Human Lord - Fang, Diamond Eyes
Hobbit Gadgeteer - Omnigun
Elf Bishop (4 realms)

I love this party coz I've got 2 casters for each of the 2 realms. No ammo needed except for Gadgeteer, so my payload is low and AC/attacks are maximised for melee. All the others spend time building up their spell realms. Currently, my samurai is averaging over 200+ damage with 1 crit per combat while my ninja is doing close to that with 2 crits per combat (and paralyzing/poisoning almost half the targets). Amazing. And my bishop's got almost every spell worth having. The Gadgeteer is firing off medusa stones and lightning bolts, tsunamis and earthquakes. Amazingly fun. =)
