Oh you mean the data where the mage is doing 50% more DPS than you? Sounds like we're in agreement I guess. Mage is significantly more damage. Who would've guessed? It's easy to look at 27.5 DPS and act like it's not a big deal but it's literally like 50% more damage than you and I'd wager that's on the low side. I would be shocked if you grouped with a mage for an hour in a fast killing group and were only 27 dps lower overall. But even if you were like I said that's still 50% more and not insignificant. No idea what your talking about with mana spent. Is that 1 nuke for mage 2 nukes for shaman per 36 sec for the duration of a fight? Cause 1 mage nuke isn't 2260 mana and 2 shaman nukes isn't 1724. No idea where you pulled those numbers from. If you're basing it on the time it took you to solo a mob that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard since mobs will be dying way quicker than that in a group. I also assume you didn't account for mod rods. Regardless of your obsession with data and math a mage isn't going to have any considerable mana issues in a group like this with permanent clarity and the ability to rely on pet dps to med through where necessary. Troxx stated he didn't have mana issues all night in the group he posted parses from. Shaman pet is significantly less dps when the shaman has to stop to canni.
Edit for math data (it's off by 0.1 from Troxx's DPS please don't yell at me):
