A pattern has emerged as I find the funniest yet most on-point posts. It’s the same person each time …

God bless you Vex.

I’m now 64 pages in and you are the reigning champion.

Troxx continues to dodge that the howling stones video disproves his claim about solo videos not translating to group scenarios.

Trroxx continues to dodge the question about why pocket clerics are not allowed.

When Troxx cannot rebut points made, he spams the thread.

Gamparse is a good program. There are others out there but it does a good job. It has different viewing tabs to include one that gives you the spam of the raw logs. I recommend you turn on other’s damage hits so you can parse your group mates as well. Remember, the goal here is to see how much dps a shaman can do in a fast paced, fast killing full group. Mine included charm pet (most of the time), another mage with epic, and a tunare/ST monk other than myself.

That is the scope of this topic, this thread, and therefore the burden of proof is to show us how great your shaman is at doing it.

Regarding your disputable/undisputable jab, I can unfortunately predict where this is going. Once you fail to show that a shaman can keep up with respectable dps (or at least as good as you think you can) under these conditions I fully expect your next angle will to say that what I’ve provided (took all of 5 minutes to compile and another 5 to screenshot a jpg of) is “disputable”. I hope my prediction is wrong.

Sad thing is I have a shaman with all the same spells/levels and the same pet it’s yours. Your best bet is going to be slinging your highest hitting ice nuke repeatedly if mobs are dying fast. Bane and especially Pox are going to be underperforming mana hogs with high speed fights.

The question is will you be able to sling enough ice nukes frequently/fast enough (with canni mana regeneration advantage). Remember: mage nukes cast faster, hit harder, are more mana efficient. You’ll have more mana to play with but unlike your pet, the level 60 mage water pet isn’t a joke.

I’m interested in what you can put out over a long hall dps session sustainably fight after fight after fight and how it stacks up.

(Unfortunately I already know … because my 60 epic troll shaman has done this kind of exercise in the past).

Ps I recommend against spamming JBB as its dps won’t be nearly enough.

PPS: chain casting ice strike precisely every 7 seconds with no lag, fizzle, or partial resist has a 96 dps potential. Unfortunately you’ll have to be taking time to canni and torpor, so actual expected dps is going to be lower. Remember you got about 50dps worth of “bad pet” to make up the difference for before you actually start competing with mage DS and mage nukes.

I wish you luck and am very interested to see your findings. And remember!! While you are furiously mashing buttons non stop trying to put out these numbers, my mage did it causally chatting and peacefully meditating and checking the stock market … standing up to sling a few nukes. Super chill, very relaxing xp and loot grind session.

Page 64. In the most comprehensive manner yet DSM is encouraged to actually try to do the thing he said he could do. I have a 60 shaman with all the same spells. I even gave him advice.

Sadly, he never even attempted it.

I’m curious when we will shift to the new approach of instead kicking the cleric out of the group … but I think it’s probably somewhere after page 400. Who knows …. well I guess I will when we get there!

Thanks for entertaining me on a lazy Sunday. Feet up watching them put in a new fence while sipping Diet Coke. Otherwise I’d be supervising some teenagers with nothing else to do.

Troxx has never provided video evidence or logs of him playing in a group with his Mage. We don't actually know if the parses he provided were in a group, due to the lack of context.

He doesn't live up to his own standard of providing evidence of him grouping. He simply dismisses evidence out of hand and demands more.

I provided the howling stones video, which shows a Shaman can output consistent direct damage DPS in a group while doing other Shaman duties in a two hour session. This consistent direct damage can be seen in the solo video too. This disproves his claim that solo videos cannot translate to group content.

So far I am the only one to show conclusive evidence of me in a group, and I have provided more evidence than Troxx.

He just keeps dodging, dismissing, trolling, and bloating the thread.

I am a bit embarrassed by my posting frequency from the mid 60s to early 70s

Oh well

2 years

550 pages in

30 seconds of video dunks on all of that effort

Comedy ensues

As a recap: the 80s have been dominated by DSM copy pasting the same wall of text repeatedly.

It looks like Troxx will continue to spam the thread, talking to himself. And he thinks this makes him look good somehow.

Meanwhile he is still dodging questions. They should be easy to answer, but this dodging shows otherwise.

We can just leave him here to talk to himself I guess. After his nonsensical and skewed recap is over, the post history will still be there, just now with more evidence of Troxx bloating the thread.

I’m not going to answer you again on why pocket characters are not allowed in a thought-discussion that places very strict limitations on how many can come, what they can and can’t be, and which 4 (precisely 4) constitutes the best combination. I have already answered you.

Riddle me this? If the OP had stipulated that no pockets are allowed - would that change your answer? Or would you still drop the cleric?
