You should especially look at the fighter (Slayer/knight) utility powers. If you take training in healing, you have some nice leadery powers.Also leaders generally enable your characters in different ways. The same result can be achieved with a solid controller. You can prevent a lot of damage if he knows his tools of trade.Ans last but not least, the extra defender or striker will help nullify monsters and as such a lot of damage is prevented.The thing is: If you lack any role, you lack a certain way of damage mitigation and tactical options. And as such, combats get a little bit harder in general. There might be some kinds of combats that become a lot harder, but there may be combats, where an extra striker/controller/defender is worth more than a leader and actually gets easier... (at least in heroic)</blockquote>
