The math says an additional enchanter does MUCH more sustained damage regardless of number of targets than you could ever hope to. The math also says mages will do much more than you consistently on a single target which is the vast majority of the time in most situations. I've played this game since beta from live to early p99 through like 6+ TLP servers and back to P99 multiple times in between. Not once have I ever been in a group where anyone said "Hey I got a good idea lets root 4 mobs off to the side so a shaman can epic click them and do almost as much damage as a mage"

I honestly can't believe you're actually trying to make this dipshit argument.

We aren't talking about Enchanters. We already agree we are bringing at least 2 lol.

The math doesn't say this, you need to show logs where a Mage could out DPS a Shaman. So far the Sebilis example doesn't work.

Your play experience is irrelevant if you are wrong. Just because people prefer to play one way, doesn't mean other ways aren't as efficient lol. Math-wise the efficiency is the same. You are also assuming Troxx was doing 157 DPS most of the time. He said before his high-end is with nuking, which isn't sustainable. We still need the logs to know what his real average is. My guess is it's decently lower.
