5x rooted mobs = 5x 9 sec click you’re refreshing (45 seconds per 90 sec duration dot cycle).

Plus the time spent refreshing root on mobs when/if they break
Plus all the time lost clicking your targets, managing your timers and cycling through which mob needs what and when (nobody is perfect).
That doesn’t leave very much time per 90 seconds to do really anything else.
All so you can keep up with a mage pet? Not even factoring the inherent risk of keeping 5-6 mobs in camp at all times? And only if each dot magically ends a mobs life at highest tick so “real” dps isn’t hampered by the nature of this unique dot?
Lol. You’re not making a strong argument here. You effectively take away what a shaman is best at (utility) in a futile attempt to pretend you are dps.

It’s just bad dsm napkin math. He recommended to not do it in droga, yet that’s a viable strat in a harder zone? Lol. This has all been debunked in the big caster thread. He just can’t let it go. Solo shamans in super controlled environments are root rotting like 3-4 on average. Maybe 5 tops. It just gets crazy to manage. Guarantee you if we actually made a group with an epic mage/velk with 2 enc they would obliterate shaman dps.
He’s basically arguing that Usain Bolt can run a marathon in an hour based on his 100m record.
