I'd be throwing dots and rooting and keeping my pet up/hasted.etc but after about 2-3 hours my ambition inevitably fades. I'd start doing less and less cause shaman is so much fucking busywork to play optimally. If I hit 4+ hours on an extended grind session I was 100% phoning it in. I stopped worrying about buffs on non-tanks other than like haste. Often I stopped really caring about doing DPS and just making sure nobody died and mobs were slowed. If I had nothing that needed to be done I'd sit instead of canni so I could just not have to pay attention and button mash and just watch netflix on other monitor for a second or something.

Mage is SIGNIFICANTLY easier to play lazily and not lose much or any effectiveness. It's not even a contest. There is no possible argument you can make otherwise. Mage is literally the lazy class. It's had that reputation since 1999 for a reason.
Just because you get lazy doesn't mean that's how everybody plays. I am sorry, but you are not the only Shaman on P99. Don't blame the class because you can't handle it.
