Root rotting sucks
I tried to root rot 10+ goblins in droga. It did not go well. The shaman epic seems to break root even though it does not have a DD on it. It seems to happen close to the end of the epic dot. Seems like the more the DoT does dmg, the higher a chance of a early root break. Plus, all the goblins were dispelling me. The Sks were landing their HTs for full dmg despite me being level 60 with 160 MR. Lifetaps landed a lot as well, also the fire dots. Some the nukes were even landing. I can only conclude that root rotting sucks. The whole fantasy of root rotting 20+ mobs in a row with the shaman epic is a stupid myth.

Sorry your level 60 shaman got owned in Droga.
Maybe you can farm something else and buy a salt/skin package? | ||

Root rotting is good, you just need to know when to use it and when not to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gdAIheodtY - This is an example of root rotting in Velks. I have little trouble keeping the mobs rooted and dotted.
For Droga, I don't root rot as much. JBB is a very nice tool in lower level dungeons, and it breaks root. I will use Epic, JBB, and pet as my damage dealers. https://wiki.project1999.com/Tigir%27s_Insects is a good option to slow multiple mobs at once, so you can simply slow/tank a few goblins at a time while your Epic is ticking on them. You also do need to be more careful in Droga. The mobs do hit hard for their level, so they can beat you up if you have like 10+ attacking you.

lol did you just sit there and eat all the spells??
On my Druid I just run thru rooting and epic dotting. LOS the spells. If you face tank all the dispels and shit you’re gunna have a rough time Also if you’re just farming the trash, do the lower level side and not the inner sanctum. Try to get them as they spawn after the first cycle, or they are gunna buff the fuck up | ||

PE should be lasting almost 2.5 mins reliably in Droga unless you’re throwing other dots with a DD component (or JBB’ing). There is a chance of an early root break but it’s not common.
The biggest issue with then sham epic is the range. It works twice as quick as the Druid one but 100 range instead of 200. Mix up your style a bit, try again, I expect it will get better. Realistically I’d prob do like 5 at once. | ||
