A 4 hybrid party was also one of my better parties. I went with a Ranger rather than a Ninja so lockpicking suffered.
I also went with Atlus 7's build for the Battle Samurai using the Staff of Doom rather than swords. I know you lose the sword bonus but on the plus side you don't need to build the Dual Weapon skill so more points to allocate on your magic skills.
I've used the same character for other parties and he/she has never let me down.
I'm also experimenting with a 4 Alchemist party which was tough at first, lots of running away. But, as you know, Alchemy is easy to raise mixing potions but it's so boring doing it with four Alchemists. I'm at level 7/8 now and aim to change one over to a Faerie Ninja once she has the Portal spell and am debating whether to change the other three once level 18 is reached. Thinking that hybrids have those 5 levels to do before they get magic back so possibly a priest and mage to get all the buffs. Oh, I don't know, what do you think?
