Let’s face it, everyone’s got their own favourites and strategies for levels. While you guys are looking for a combination that works for everything, I like variation. I find Priestess and Marksmen very good with fitting combos. Of course you can’t combine Marksmen with Wizard or Witch since the bonus effect will be minuscule. But combined with multiple hitters (Samurai, Stone Guard, Priestess, Cannoneer) Marksmen becomes very effective.
Same as Priestess. Of course you waste a turn by linking the healing, but in PvE this isn’t as dramatic as in Arena IMO, plus this wasted turn WILL pay off especially if your birds are low on health. Again, combined with other multiple hitters, the healing is enormous and definitely better than what any other Mathilda class can do on healing in PvE (in Arena Witch outclasses her of course, but I am not talking about Arena!!!), and the healing effect gets better the higher the health of the attacking bird is. With Red in your team, and Red having 4.5k health for example, this is 3×450 HP healing for every bird when Spirit Link is up and running. That’s the equivalent of three Pretty Fruit Cakes! And yes I did use the class like this, to great joy, because even when your Priestess is new and mastery rank 1, the healing will still be 10%. (On the other hand, of course, the healing also won’t increase with higher mastery, which may be a single disadvantage I see. Then again, higher mastery on the attacking birds does increase healing.)

Healing Wizard is great but only when facing groups of enemies (against single enemies, the healing effect is small). Healing Bomb IMO is WAY worse than Healing Chuck because Bomb doesn’t have an AoE class (the AoE effect of Berserk does not heal, and when Bomb rages it doesn’t heal him either, I noticed). Paladin can be good if you have him and he has a good enough mastery rank. However, Red’s base attack is quite weak compared to the other birds (even Mathilda almost beats him!) so I do use him more often now that I have a complete set for him, but still not as much as Wizard or Spies for example. The others are simply better IMO.
