You truly are impermeable to reason.
Yes, two enchanters share the same spell book. Yes, clerics have some overlapping spells. Guess what those two classes bring? Excellent DPS, the best CC and the best healing in the game.
A shaman is completely irrelevant here for a 4th member, for DPS, Utility and Healing.
How many times do we need to say this? Of course you're going to say "how can you prove it" when we proved it to you time and time again. But it doesn't matter, because we've already won the argument here and are only trying to make you admit the truth in vain.

Ah, so now redundancy isn't a bad thing?
Shamans bring excellent damage mitigation (which is why they are such good soloers) and can alleviate an Enchanter's mana problems by simply taking over some of their duties. With cannibalize their mana will last longer, which means they can do more. In an emergency situation, a Shaman is much tankier than a Cleric, and can help the group when you are fighting harder mobs, such as stun immune mobs. A Shaman can still output decent DPS without breaking a sweat to help stay above the DPS threshold, while a cleric is simply meditating. Malo reduces how many charm breaks there are too.
A group of 3-4 players without a Warrior is not fighting anything that needs CH. You aren't CH chaining a Warrior who is discing. With Slow + Torpor, you don't need to heal your pet at all, and the pet is doing more DPS because it doesn't need to tank.
You would know this if you actually had a point to make. Saying Shamans are "useless" is just a baseless opinion. I can still tell you how many seconds a Mage will save with 2x Enchanters DPSing, and it isn't relevant.
