 If you are interested in civil discussion rather than an "argument", you might consider backing up your points with relevant, factual data instead of attempting to tell other posters what to do as if you believe that you have some - or any - authority over them hehe.

			 I'm glad someone like Troxx injects humour into an otherwise painfully futile debate with someone who does not care about objective truth. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		If shamans truly were better than mage at DPS, why would I be any more upset about it than the fact enchanter is a disgustingly overpowered class? I know this game is imbalanced. The thing is, though: you're not right, DSM. Mage is a better group DPS than shaman. And why is this so difficult for you to admit? Shaman is an overall more powerful and more interesting class than mage. Noone here debates this. You can't concede over something so innocuous? What is wrong with you?!  | ||

 I am not sure where this strawman came from that I said Shamans are better at DPS in all situations or something.

			 We have proven it! What...? 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		What do you think those mage logs were all about? You even admitted they did more damage -- just that shaman still had more worth in the long run. I thought that's what the debate was all about? Keep your story straight, you manipulative sociopath.  | ||

 Nobody has argued Mages aren't a DPS class. The question is how much their DPS matters when looking at a four man group. I am not sure where this strawman came from that I said Shamans are better at DPS in all situations or something.

			 And we told you, ad nauseam, that shaman utility is redundant.  
		
		
		
		
		
		
		Maybe it's time for you to stop fucking stealth editing if it's becoming a problem? Also, why did you say "prove it" to begin with? Why didn't you say "Yeah, mages are better DPS, but they're not better in this group."? Look at you backpeddle so furiously! What is wrong with you, man? This is just depressing at this point.  | ||

 The problem is you haven't shown the Shaman's utility is less useful than the Mage's DPS. However, I have shown a Mage's DPS isn't giving you any more kills per hour. The math is still true. Right now, the data shows Shaman Utility > DPS when DPS is giving you 0 extra kills per hour in a session. Having better safety and more camp options is better than useless DPS.
