Evidence isn't required for something that is extremely obvious to anyone with a mediocre or better understanding of this game. I don't have a 60 mage I can go parse to shut you up but everyone else on this forum besides you is well aware that what you're saying is nonsense. You're spewing this hypothetical situation that isn't realistic 99.9% of the time as a reason why your beloved shaman is as good/better than a mage for this hypothetical 4 man caster group.
If you can keep 4 mobs perma rooted in camp at all times in addition to whatever mob the rest of the group is fighting and you can ensure all 4 of those mobs die in increments of exactly 1.5 minutes then you probably are better dps than a mage with less gear than you (no epic). Congratulations buddy. If you can pull this off for a single hour straight I will tattoo your name on my forehead. Your hypothetical circumstance where shaman > mage is so unbelievably unrealistic I have no good words to accurately describe how ridiculous it is. Even if you are somehow gods gift to everquest shamans and can somehow pull this off I assure you 99.999999% of shamans cannot and thus I can safely conclude that mage > shaman for literally every case except you in this 4 man caster group.

The math is still true regardless of your protesting. I am not speaking nonsense, you are simply not happy with what I am saying because you have a Mage. I am not saying you shouldn't play a Mage. Mages are fine. I am simply showing the truth. If DPS was your primary concern, you wouldn't need to bring a Mage.
Necro or Shaman would DPS just fine on top of all the other stuff they can do. The reality is with two Enchanters you have enough DPS as it is, so I am not sure why you think a Mage would be good here anyway. Their DPS really isn't that impressive or necessary, especially for clearing Sebilis.
