"Everybody knows" isn't an argument, it is a fallacy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentum_ad_populum . If you claim there isn't a bug in the parser, then the numbers are accurate lol, no skewing involved. By your own admission, Mage average DPS is 80.
Please prove my data is "extremely flawed". Being in a group doesn't change a Mobs stats. A Mage could even do the same test that I provided if they want. We have no way to know how Troxx even got his parse data, due to it just being a screenshot.
The ball is still in your court lol.
Your beliefs are irrelevant to the truth, which is you have no evidence to counter mine, or back up your propositions. |
A group with 2 or more charm pets the mobs are dying in like less than 30 seconds. Obviously 5% more slow is a HUGE DEAL so you're obviously slowing every mob right? Once mob comes in and you cast malo + slow and get your first dot applied (assuming no resists) you're gonna get like 2 ticks before it dies. Best case scenario you get 2 dots up and get like 2 ticks each. This is EXTREMELY inefficient from a DPM perspective. No amount of canni/torpor makes this efficient or sustainable in a fast moving chain pulling group. Contrary to what you seem to believe you can't cast canni and torpor WHILE casting dots and malo/slow. You can only cast 1 spell at a time in the game of EverQuest and they tend to have long-ish cast times and multiple charms make mobs die very quickly.
Mage pet does its full DPS from the literal second the mob comes into camp and all their DPS is frontload-able via nukes which are OBVIOUSLY superior to dots when fighting stuff that dies quickly. Would you rather spend 7 seconds and 320 mana to do 1024 damage from a mage nuke on a mob thats gonna die in 30 sec or spend 5 seconds and 430 mana to apply a dot that will do 111 a tick and if you're lucky will tick 3 times? The only way your stupid ass theory works is if the shaman is root rotting adds off to the side which fucking nobody ever does or wants to do besides you.
