Total horse shit. A Necro could kill one in 1-2 mins if they were using 60% of their bar doing it sure.

#1 sustained solo killing vs Seafuries = Epic Shaman.

I have both a Necro and Shaman, and once I brought my Shaman there I was like why the fuck would anyone bring a Necro here. I have rotted 9 at a time(about the upper threshold).

Shamans and necros are stupid to waste their time on gems on seafury island when they could be owning HS and Seb. This should be a thread complaining about wizards quadding the seafuries, because it's the one damn thing they can do solo.

Haha not once did I ever say a epic shaman is not more efficient. Of course he is since he's using no mana except for roots. If it is an empty island of course a shaman would be best. Talking about most user friendly for crowded times on the isle in this thread. Can't complain about quadders kiting mobs when a shammy is slowly ticking away their health.
I'd much rather see a necro/mage burning thru mobs for faster turnover of the island..

If they delay that long yes.

Or they can just kill their 3 in a third the time it takes a shaman to root rot one.

Or people can realize quadders gonna quad and you're best to let them get their fourth and allow them to med for 10min while you kill mobs.

its less obvious/overtly obnoxious than a bard or a quad kiter...but shamans can tie down an obscene amount of mobs with their slow and steady root/dot stuff.

the real annoyance when you share an area with a shaman is that it tends to take them (much) longer to kill stuff, so over the course of several hours you have fewer available spawns.

the world is so big though...why share if you don't like to? there are plenty of persistently empty camps that give exp and cash loot and are almost always uncamped on p99.

I'm not talking about efficency, I'm talking about speed. If there's only 1 mob, a Shaman will pour extra dots onto it and kill fast.

If there's 9 spawns, a Shaman can kill all 9 in ~5-6 minutes.

Who else is killing 9 that fast?

If you're pulling multiple mobs when other people are waiting on one, you're a dick. Very simple rule!

Are wizards really running around for literally 10 minutes or are you guys just exaggerating? When I quad there I give my search for mobs maybe 2 minutes tops, and then it's only something like 8 nukes and I have 4 dead mobs. I'm pretty sure the time it takes to go from getting off my medding ass to looting the corpses is comparable to the time it takes a shaman to kill the 4 he has rooted.
