always wanted to do a iksar sham / monk / necro static trio from scratch

Necro is dead weight here unless you specifically limit your places to undead charming. I’d swap in a war or sk.

The synergies between shaman and necro are really strong.

nah not unless ubertwinked...low budget / self fund necro provides so much synergy its insane

[Crede]

The shaman/necro synergy is strong because shamans can’t dps for shit(lol hi DSM). If you’re making a trio just go ham on dps like iksar monk/war/shaman or even like ogre sham/war/sk would be good and war zerks the whole time.

The necro is the healer actually.

shaman will be forever oom and pretty miserable

necro becomes the main healer, shaman has plenty of mana for all the things, shaman regen so good for necro, etc

its a better trio...even more so if no fungis / twinking are involved...probably the best trio that doesnt use an enchanter

I am not sure why you keep saying that, you don't have any data to back this up. With JBB, EBolt, and a hasted Pet, Shamans can output 55 DPS on a single target if you are killing one mob per minute. This is not a level 60 Shaman either. My ToV geared SK does 60-70 DPS with 54% haste. If the Shaman has Epic you can also root rot multiple targets while your duo partner is focusing down one mob at a time. This would further increase your DPS.

A Cleric outputs zero DPS if you are using them for a healer instead, for example.

DSM please do not derail another thread.

Just stop.

Now.

Back to the evolving topic of discussion: yeah necro and shaman synergy is stellar. They complement each other beautifully.

You are the only one trying to troll/derail the thread with nonsense like this. Don't blame me for your lack of self control. Learn some self restraint and stick to the topic at hand instead of reverting to your normal pattern of trolling, or reply to the substance of my post. At least your aren't attacking autistic people this time. Progress!

Crede is incorrect in his assertion that Shamans cannot output good DPS. He has no evidence for this claim. If people are worried about DPS in a Shaman/X duo, you need to take into account the realistic DPS a Shaman can output.

[Troxx]

No, please just let this stop here. We don’t need another DSM thread about you talking about root rotting mobs beside otherwise functioning groups to support the notion of DPS shamans.

Please stay on topic or at least create a different thread.
