Too many shamans

Arterian 03-18-2013 08:31 PM

When I /who all I don't typically see a disproportion of shamans.

Tenlaar 03-18-2013 09:32 PM

Right now, there are:

80 enchanters
78 necromancers
104 druids
77 shaman

Thanks!

I would recommend trying Crushbone at 9. Decent XP. Groups will like you and you can sell belts for 1pp and pads for 2pp all day. Doesn't sound like much but if you play through 14 here you should easily walk away with 50 belts and 10 pads. That's 70pp plus whatever loose change you pick up.

If I roll ogre, I'm going to insist on being shrunken at all times.

As I understand, shrink the spell is indoors only, but ant potion can be used anywhere correct?

Also, shrink lasts until you zone right?

The problem with ant potion is that it cost 25 plat a pop to buy it. 250 for 10. Not cheap. Shrink is indoors only. Yes if you die or zone poof.

Barbarian starting stamina: 100

Iksar starting stamina: 75


Yeah, no.

Yeah, that should have been worded "other than two of the three stats that will matter in any way during your time playing a shaman..."

I love CB, but if I remember correctly it hurts my Neriak faction. There are few enough places for me to go as is, I'd hate to narrow it further.

I don't understand how this is short sighted if I've already used it thousands of times, unless you're telling me there's a need at 55+ for a garbage 6.0 second cast time snare. With all the tools a shaman has at 55+ I fail to see how it will be useful then, especially with the mixed reviews of it in this thread. 2.0 cast time fear means I can cast in between med ticks and easily spammable. But again, maybe the perspective is different if you got some pp to spend on other toys.

The snare clicky (albeit slow to cast, short in duration, and minimal effect) is a wonderful tool to have for those "oh shit" moments. I hate doing it, but I can also be the snarer for a group in a pinch.
