Well, I'm operating on the assumption of infinite time, so the question isn't so much "can a Shaman do it without Malo or Torpor", it's more "if you tried a million times, would one of those attempts be super lucky and let you land everything you need to kill the golem (without Malo/Torpor)?" Because with infinite time you can take those million tries (and earn back the XP lost from each).

So like maybe normally it's impossible to root/rot the golem, but if there's even a 0.1% chance that you can land root, then in theory if you make enough attempts, you'll get an attempt where both roots and the DoTs manage to land, despite it being incredibly unlikely, and so you'd manage to kill the golem.

And if it "only" takes a million attempts to kill a single golem, then with infinite time you can totally make the thousand million attempts to get enough kills to actually loot Malo/Torpor.

Infinite time EQ is weird (but a fun thought experiment, thanks OP!)
You guys are missing the easier possibility....

This person could use a Enchanter to do the early "heavy lifting" Tash, land slow, use
Astral projection as charm to solo the Golems, then ground xfer Torpor (after lots and lots of farming.... dying to charm breaks / ETC

(Tash and slow are vendor spells *Well Forlorn's isnt but its not 60 either*) And Boltran can be used to substitue for Allure until you get the proper pages

However then the question becomes.... is a non epic Torpor Shaman stronger than a well played enchanter? Probably not... they could be equal but I really don't see a Torpor shaman without epic exceeding a well played enchanter
