They can deal with charm breaks better.
They can Malo better.
They can tank better.
They can save the group mana.
Summoned Mage haste items are irrelevant when level 60s use Tola Robes for the Enchanter pets.

1: Decent enchanters don't need help with this
2: Very slightly better malo. Largely irrelevant. Can speak from experience playing enc on p99 with both malo versions.
3: A tank isn't needed in this group
4: Not needed. Nobody is going oom in this group if played correctly.
5: Tola robes are certainly better. In the event they are not available a mage summoned haste item is a nice perk.
As has been pointed out countless times. Shamans are very powerful and have great utility. It's just not utility that is useful or needed for this particular group setup. You seem to be assuming the enc/clr are bad and/or will make frequent mistakes that a shaman will be useful to correct. Again we're assuming good players that very infrequently make mistakes. They're more than capable of chugging along without extra heals or a very slightly better resist debuff. All shamans bring to this group is mediocre DPS that (even by your own admission) a mage can do better. YES WE ALL KNOW DPS ISN'T SUPER IMPORTANT WITH 2 CHARMS YOU DENSE FUCK. Slightly more DPS is still better than less DPS with unnecessary utility.
