If you are killing a mob at roughly 30 seconds, you will get the DoT ticks most of the time. If think the group is killing considerably faster than 30 seconds, name the time so I can adjust the spells accordingly hehe.
I already listed the accurate uptime of the DoT's. Single targets are generally dying faster than 30 seconds. E-bolt with 1 extra tick is still worse than Shock of Poison anyway.

I am not ignoring resists. You simply don't seem to realize it would affect a Mage too. And since a Shaman can regenerate mana faster, it's less of an issue.
You ARE ignoring resists. You keep claiming a certain DPS number when that is not accurate. Shaman "regenerating mana faster" is irrelevant. That's already factored into the equation of what the Shaman and Mage can do.

The accurate number is about 28 DPS from Shaman direct-damage spellcasting vs 25 for Mage. Then on top of that the Mage has their pet (60 DPS) + damage shield (15 DPS), compared to Shaman pet (12 DPS). That is 100 DPS for the Mage and 40 for the Shaman.

Bane cast is 5 seconds, E-Bolt cast is 6 seconds, JBB is 8 seconds. 20 seconds easily fits into 30 seconds lol. I do have the mana, it is not my fault you can't math.
You are so fucking dumb.

1.) YOU YOURSELF ALREADY SAID YOU ONLY HAVE MANA TO DO BANE + E-BOLT EVERY 40 SECONDS.

2.) The amount of mana you have as a Shaman is dependent on your ability to spam Canni. If you are using JBB, then you are NOT using Canni spam in that time, thus losing a large amount of mana.

As I already said, the best DPS you're going to do is Bane (lasting 3 ticks) + Blast of Poison every 30 seconds.

We aren't talking about Velious giants lol.
Yes we were. I said Kael plate house when you said "there aren't enough MOBs to kill that frequently anyway". Although there is enough to kill in Seb basement anyway if you want to farm the entire thing.

The cold resist thing is irrelevant anyway though, because as I already showed the math for, Shock of Poison is already the top DPS a Shaman can create with direct damage spells. Their cold DD's are slower and thus effectively cost more mana since it's taking away from Canni usage time.
