None of you (us) can.
4 potting rooted and dotted mobs, essentially soloing, while grouped is the height of rudeness and stupidity. It may work and even be efficient (no one cares though) but it has many ways to go sideways that a group concentrating on one actve and possibly 1-2 mezzed. You fuck ya 4 pull, root resists on one and shit hits fan, solo you gate or zone. Ya group mates could be fucked.
If you grouped with me and proceeded to "solo" 4 mobs in or near camp, you would literally be solo. Just before an accidentall memblur train on yo arse. /shrug
Seems like you just need to play the game more. Root rotting isn't more dangerous than Charming a pet and giving it a torch + haste. That can also backfire and wipe the party.

Saying you cannot do something that people have done before is a silly argument to make. If your group agrees to it, there is no problem. I am not sure why you are assuming I just started root rotting without group approval lol.

Most groups don't bother doing these kinds of strategies because long time players intuitively understand you don't need to maximize DPS to have efficient kill speeds. You are correct on that point. This is why Mage is unnecessary in this four man group. Two Enchanters are covering the DPS just fine. But if people admitted that, then they would admit Mage is unecessary, and they are unwilling to do that.

This is why you don't see a lot of 6 man XP groups. Six people do more DPS, but you aren't gettng enough XP in return to justify the extra DPS. The same logic applies for this four man group. The Mage's extra DPS isn't useful enough to justify wasting a group slot. If you need CoTH, that is a different story.

You have provided zero evidence for any of your claims thus far. You need to provide some evidence for your claims first[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] It is a lazy tactic to keep asking for evidence, while providing nothing in return. I have actually provided evidence in this thread.

I don't normally record group sessions because I think it is impolite to upload videos without the groups approval.
