while Cliff Golems are fun, I have haven't seen a single spell drop.

I got my torpor off cliff Golems.
I've also gotten several other high end spells such as Bedlam.

They are an option for people who don't have 100k or a guild to get them torpor.

Other than that, I've farmed Gwurms with a crew and we produced 8 torpor in 1 month. avg was 4-5 per month though.

I've also many times solo pulled and prepped Ixiblat Fer for a single group to kill easily.
I've said it before, solo'd ayillish for people's +6 neck.

the list goes on, but we're getting way off topic. Or I am atleast..

I am also not sure why you seem to claim root rotting is all a Shaman does even at high levels, considering quite a few mobs are unrootable at high levels.

Then they must slow tank and rot. Okay no root involved but SLOW is insanely OP. You cast a 50% slow on a mob you essentially reduce it's melee damage by 50%.

Shaman damage comes from it's DoTs. In my opinion the poison dots are the best. high damage burn to take down targets fast. Use the dog as a mana battery or a little extra damage.

Yeah shaman pet's are decent, they will raise your dps by 2-10, that's quite a nice bonus even in velious.
