It’s cool though. Enjoy your nonstop click fest trying to pretend a shaman is good dps. The mage will sit back giggling and doing twice your damage while checking their Facebook page.
Shamans aren’t a group dps class. Excellent healers/support. Excellent soloers (and capable of plowing down some damage in that role. Fantastic duo/trio toons.
But they aren’t an effective choice for doing dps in groups.

The data shows otherwise. They can do both. As stated many times before, a Mages DPS isn't necessary in a 2x Enchanter group to begin with, which is why a Shaman's utility is preferred. If your Enchanters are doing 400 DPS, you are killing a mob with 12k HP in 30 seconds. A Mages 30 DPS difference compared to a Shaman would increase the kill speed by 2 seconds. That's not worth losing all of the utility a Shaman has to offer.
