Shaman advice - Malise?

[Videri]

I must confess shaman is one of the classes I have not played much. But I do know some shaman DoTs have a direct damage component at the start, which can break root regardless of resists. I’ll bet that’s part of the difficulty.

Perhaps you could kite with SoW until 1-2 DoTs are applied, then Root and sit/canni.
