How strong a Shaman that never gets Torpor?

Level 5 bard has selo's, which allows you to move while otherwise over encumbered. Or sow pots/jboots on any other class

Yeah people don't keep 100k in the bank, they keep in on a mule in the tunnel. Many don't even bother with the bard part they just accept the fact that they can't move.

"Can you kill it or not?" has got to be the most relevant question when it comes to best soloer though. I agree different classes are better or worse at soloing in different circumstances, but are there any mobs that enchanters *can* solo that a torp shaman can't? Charm is kind of cheap too because it's not really soloing, it's just having access to a really powerful merc. Shaman pets are pathetically weak and zero fights pivot on a shaman pet being present or not.

strongest dots and can slow stuff and solo summonable mobs

torpor is amazing, theres nothing in the game better so keep your spell , its the best heal ratio there is

It's worth mentioning that if you move over uneven terrain while carrying that much coin (i.e. set foot out of the tunnel) it's a good idea to have levi also. The tiniest drop can become a 10k fall if sufficiently encumbered. Part of why such large coin amounts usualy just stay on a mule in the tunnel I guess.

I wouldn't say Charm is a cheesy method at high levels. For pretty high level content, a Charm break can seriously wreck your day very quickly if things go poorly. A stun or two landing on you before you can get some sort of CC spell off (and btw depending on the dungeon your Ench PBAOE stun line can be a bit dangerous to use) and you might be in some trouble.

one word: totemic armor
with the right set of totemic armor you can be an almost max level shaman powerhouse like i am

A shaman without torpor is still better than a druid.

Lol seriously ? Encumberence effects fall damage ?
