Juggs are the gauge of what mobs become in Velious and ogre shamans solo them with no issues currently. Mobs on here stun so much more than classic, I don't know if it's an issue with defense skill or what, but it feels like you're stunned on cooldown if you try to cast. Imagine casting epic or JBB on a 50k+ hp mob and being stunned over and over (or even just stunned trying to cast malo / slow and eatting unslowed melee for 20 seconds). Ogres don't have this issue. It's so huge and people who don't think it is haven't had to deal with it.

I'd reroll if I were a troll shaman at 60, not even kidding.
I solo Juggs with ease as a Barb, its not hard to time a fucking bash. Sometimes I even stop spamming JBB and sit on their face inbetween the special attack cycles to lul at them.

My advice: If your intention is to solo WW Dragons, roll an ogre if you dont have a brain, roll a troll if you want that little bit of extra regen (which is still incredibly useful, even with torpor lol...), or roll a barb and be a fuckin man

I swear most people giving shaman advice on this server have very little to no experience actually playing one and are just theorycraft specialists. or they suck.
