Making a Barb Shaman - Change my Mind

[DMN]

I hate to be a bearer of bad news, but i think shaman might be the worst caster in the game up until 30ish. Not in power/abilities, but in sheer boredom.

iksar can be shaman, too, in the off chance you weren't aware of that.

A lot of shaman spells are shared with druids and necros. You can always buy the really important spells ahead of time. Speaking of which Only minority of the shaman spells are even worth buying 1-50. A lot of chaff and little wheat.

Black Bear Form > Polar Bear Form. Dont @ me.

Talk you out of it? Uhm... Torpor costs 80k? That's all i got.

Shamans are expensive to have. But I'd make one. I'd love to make one right now. You might hit a cap, where you have to farm forever but eh. Fungi isn't impossible and I think that's all you need to do stuff. Not a shaman expert.

Shaman is a class where every race is strong choice. Barb being the least strong of the four but still good race/class combo. Ogre>Troll>Iksar>Barb

If I see you on sometime Skotch we can group up. I’ve got a low lvl ranger hanging out in qeynos/BB. It’s pretty lonely but nostalgic for me.

Shaman is a great choice, pretty much unlimited upside for itemization/spells. Barb is a good choice, I can tell you for sure every bit of extra cost post 50 makes the grind easier.

When you guys get close to 40 I'll add my bard to the mix.

I've got Skotch a pretty good little starter gear set ready for him. Just waiting to hear back on a time to meet up.

Barbarian shaman is the only shaman that can go to happy towns and isn't alligned with disgusting evil swamp monster dieties.

On non PVP server there is no reason to want a slight technical advantage against 1999 designed AI mobs that are easy to dupe and kill. So be a barbarian and have a great time.

Wish I went barb instead of troll. Great choice.
