Soloing as a mage and necro

[Wallicker]

I’m saying I could kill it 100% of the time on those 3 classes, they solo it better than a mage, the necro would have to get super lucky landing spells bc they can’t chain a 490mana pet that isn’t as strong as a mages.

Look, as a Shaman, what do you do when your slows get resisted? Which they will fairly often because it's hard to land stuff on an even con?

Again, I'll grant that if you're willing to spend long enough running in circles you can keep making attempts on a mob despite needing to make a hard resist check. But A) that takes forever, and B) even then, there's limits.

You don't have mana-free epic damage or JBB damage in classic. Your only "mana free damage" is your pet, and of course if you leave him alone with the mob he'll die fast. When you run out of mana, you have to sit and med (or maybe cann-dance, briefly, but no Torpor + Cann).

So you try casting on the lizard, and maybe you even get lucky and land a slow initially, but then he resists a bunch, and ... then what? You can run around and med up, but any damage you do will fade while that happens, and you're back to square one.

I'm not just trying to argue, so I want to be clear: I'm not in any way saying a 50 Shaman can never kill him. I'm just trying to understand your strategy for dealing with limited mana and a bunch of resists from an even con.

It’s more fun this way, want to make a 5k wager for each class, bard, sham, ench. I’ll kill him lvl 50 or below on each, self buffed, naked.

That might be considered RMT so I'm not going to bite.

But look, you're acting like I'm asking you to report your deepest and darkest fears or something here. You wrote:

Not me. But you still haven't answered whether that "100% of the time" includes hours and hours of running around with the lizard behind you, desperately trying to land stuff on an even con. If that's what you mean, then I have no disagreement with you whatsoever, so just say so.

But if you mean, "I show up on lizard isle with a nekid 50 shaman, and in 10 min I guarantee there's a lizard corpse and no Shaman corpse" ... great! I'll 100% believe that too. All you have to do is use the English language, the same way you have in past posts, to describe how.
