The extra skill boosts and level points you gain from smaller parties more than make up for the fewer attacks.
My 4 fairies [ninja, ranger, bish, bish] were death machines by the time we got there-- the Bishops took out all but 2 of the rapax army in the first round. Far easier time than I had with my 6 man mixed party, even though the group o' six had all the best stuff-- excal, *light*, CoC, etc.
Small parties are only tougher at the very beginning. Once you hit Arnika, they will more than hold their own.
