I agree with you issar. It would be far more rewarding in the long run to push on trough to 60 on the shm or monk or both!
My first class was mage and I still use my mage from time to time to farm plat/vendor food. It helps mix things up and kinda be lazy mode. I wish I rolled a necro, they save so much more utility than a mage and can farm just as well. Here nor there.. my mage is far more effective at plat/vendor trash farming than my shm who, with torpor can cheese some pretty big targets solo. But that's not to say my mage couldn't chain summon them down.
So I really think it depends on what the OP considers 'farming'.
shm/monk/enchanter/necro will all have a place in a group. They all can solo effectively, some more than others but let's not split hairs on that subject. I know first hand how underwhelming it feels to have a shaman without their epic and torpor. All you got is a couple dots, a pet and maybe jbb for damage. And if his monk isn't twinked it will also feel relatively weak solo.
I pushed iksar necro up front because you can pretty much play darn near naked and still make decent to good raw plat per hour.
@Kelor What does 'farming' mean to you? And or don't you know or are perhaps unsure?
