I didn't say there aren't Shamans who don't solo[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I said most Shamans like to solo in addition to grouping/raiding. You don't need data to understand this point. Shamans are one of the few classes that can solo/group/raid equally well across all level ranges. Same with Enchanter. Most players aren't going to spend 60k+ on Torpor without also wanting to solo. A lot of people don't have multiple level 60 characters, so one enticing reason to make a Shaman or Enchanter is you can have one level 60 that can do everything.

In duo/group situations there are plenty of times where FSI can be useful on a Shaman, since you may need to off-tank something. I rarely use Fungi Tunic/Regrowth anymore in solo or group situations, and I don't lose any time. If losing 30 hp/tick isn't a problem, losing 8 hp/tick isn't a problem.



Design is irrelevant to how the class actually plays. Shamans can solo better than most classes, even though they are a support class. By your logic Rogues should be good soloers, since they are designed as a DPS class. I am pretty sure Enchanters were also supposed to be support classes by design.
