Can't even wear fungi tunic.

Thanks.

What's a Vah Shir?

You can still be interrupted by stuns as an ogre, you just don't get stunned. Try it, stand against a wall, and if a monster bashes you while casting, it will have a chance of interrupting the spell you're on, even though you don't move, or are pushed.

Additionally, its also about optimization. A mob only bashes what, every 52 seconds when slowed? Not worth the loss in regen or snare neck.

Troll all the way

^this, but really just play what you want. Any Shammy is deadly.

I find that my Ogre Shadow Knight is constantly getting interrupted. That made it easy for me to choose Troll when I rolled my Shammy alt. Free "innate Fungi Tunic" by 60, what's not to like?

And if my Ogre SK happens to have a corner handy (he often doesn't), then that helps a little on the interruptions, but that's true with any race. He still gets interrupted plenty.

not interrupted at all from bash. Spell continues casting and gives message that you channeled through.[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Not true bash can still interrupt you even if you are immune to frontal stun

Bash does not need to stun you to interrupt you. Frontal stun immunity is not frontal bash immunity. Bash is that good. Even with a rune on bash can interrupt you. Even with DA on bash can stun you from behind.

I remember grouping with this de sk at LCY who insisted on pulling every mob into a corner. I hated that guy.

They just wore Lunar Fungus Tunics like the good shamans.
