How is the life of a shaman?
So I've become more interested in starting a shaman recently. They are sought after for groups and can also solo.
I've got a couple questions: 1.) Is group/solo play tedious? I've seen a few shamans express that you have to be constantly making moves, whether grouping or solo. Canni, buffs, heals, pet, etc. If the dog has to go out, might be hard to afk etc. 2.) How good are you at soloing? With no "Get out of jail free card" like feign death, can you still rock the solo game pretty well? What about someplace like lower guk? Can you break and hold camps well? I appreciate any input I can get. I think it's a fascinating class, just looking for some information from those who know it best! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | ||

Shams are very popular for good reason.
Group play: A good shaman will constantly be making moves just like a good "insert class here". Ok, maybe not wizards. A bad shaman will sit around "medding" and come back to cast buffs every once in a while. Guess it depends on which you want to be. People will still probably group with you even as a bad shaman, especially if you slow here and there. Solo: Good solo class from low to 60. Can tank with slows, root/rot solo many named camps. One of the top solo classes for sure.

Well, it's basically living the EQ dream: making plat and fucking wood elves. | ||

There are a million Shaman's on here for a reason. But they are a lot of work to play well solo or grouped. And a Ton of plat to equip well at high levels. Fungi, Granate Face Grinder, Canni Spell, Torpor, JBB etc. While a class like a Necro or Mage can be naked and make it. | |||

Shaman can solo, but there is a lot of downtime. Mages & Necros are a better solo class. Though they provide less utility to a group. If you wanna solo great AND be valuable to a group, then Bard may be your ticket.
