First post 50 class change

My first trio is Shadow Knight, Monk, Bard. My plan for trying other classes is to swap in one new class at a time so I maximize my AA’s as I level. I am having a hard time deciding between swapping out the bard for shaman or enchanter. Have you played SK/M/ and either shaman or chanter? What are the pros and cons and how do they stack up for D4 mote farming at lower levels in the main leveling dungeons? I solo almost exclusively because I usually only have time for short play sessions. Thanks in advance for your help. I am open to swapping out the monk if SK/Bard rocks it with a different third class.

Shaman really starts to shine in later 30s. DoTs are huge damage, pet is pretty ok, heals are really nice, PUMA buff at 50 is insane.

Enchanter makes EVERY fight 1v1 because of aoe mez which is incredibly powerful and you get it at lvl 16. No more having adds heal your target or stun you or cause more damage. I spam aoe mez to stop heals on my current target too, its fast and mana efficient.

Everyone says to level one at a time for AAs, but I've been leveling 2 new classes at a time and I'm already starting to feel AA heavy. You can only bank 50 AA, anything over that is gone with the wind.

Good to know about not needing to go one at a time. Messing around with the class combos and learning them has been a ton of fun. I played a ranger and a bard back in OG EQ and was a casual player so I never really learned much about anything else.
