Specialization would give you maybe 2 DPS since you could do 10% more nukes.

No, the Shaman wouldn't really need to go bonkers. They can keep up the 70 DPS for 70 mobs hehe. In a higher level area you aren't killing 70 mobs per hour due to camp restrictions and 30 minute timers. This means realistically you would have more downtime, no need to constantly cast.

Cleric/Ench/Shaman/Neco would be better. You could do more camps such as Fungi King and again DPS isn't going to be hurt much by using the Shaman instead. I have clearly shown Mage DPS isn't significantly better, and Shamans bring more utility to the table.

Remember this thread is a semi unrealistic scenario to begin with. If you want DPS you would always bring a Rogue over a Mage. The last rogue I parsed in Sebilis was doing 133 DPS, which is much better than a Mage playing their best.

How does swapping in a Shaman open up fungi king over a mage? Getting 5% more slow & 10 better malo?
