Eh, not true.
If you're going the untwinked route, shaman stat buffs are great for melee.
But this is a 4 person all caster/priest group. So in the context of the thread, you're correct [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] |
Yeah, shamans are fantastic until melees start capping out their relevant stats. They don't scale well with mob numbers either due to their relative lack of CC. A cleric/enc duo can DA hold/AE mez to instantly break a whole room of mobs with 100% safety, there are things which shamans just can't ever do no matter the gear. If this was about soloing you could make the argument that shamans combine healing with slowing, but in a 4-man group you don't need to put both of those tasks on the same character. You can have the cleric heal and the enchanter slow.
If you even want a slow, that is. Underestimating damage shield dps is another classic noob mistake, especially if you're playing fast and loose with charm pets (no reason not to if you've got 2-3)
