Yes because all groups spend all 60 seconds of all 60 minutes of every hour constantly fighting without breaks, pauses, crawling, waiting on a pull…

Obtuse man …

Do we even play the same game? I provided you real time, real world, actual fights that happened. I never ran out of mana. This is how the fights went. It’s the actual game not some BS theory crafting of a pseudo intellectual who knows how to use a calculator.

Dude, you aren't getting it. You can only nuke 70 times per hour. It doesn't matter how you break that up. You could nuke 10 times in 1 minute, and you would still only have 60 nukes left for the next 59 minutes lol. You aren't gaining nukes somehow.

The math doesn't change. You are getting 320 mana per minute at 32 mana per tick. Unless you are getting twitched, that doesn't change.

As you said earlier, the only thing you can do is lose nukes due to not meditating[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It's not a schtick. Its actual math. Does nobody on these forums know how to do basic math?

Are you autistic?

The only thing wrong about your “math” is you failed to factor in conjuration specialization. The problem isn’t your math it’s your absolute ability to divorce your concept of math from the reality of actual game play, actual group dynamics … and how the “math” works out in a real world setting.

Just going to repost this calculation, because anybody who knows basic math will understand. If you think your average DPS is 175 because you spammed Nukes in a single fight, then you are basically trying to argue Wizards are the best DPS class in the game lol.

Average pet DPS: (46 + 60 + 56 + 52 + 75 + 57 + 50 + 55 + 52) / 9 = ~56 DPS.

A Mage with max Meditate and Clarity II is regenerating mana at 31 mana per tick. Let's assume this Mage has 3000 Mana to start with.

Max mana per hour: (31 mana x 10 ticks per minute x 60 minutes) + 3000 = 21600.

Shock of Steel costs 275 mana, so that means you can cast it a maximum of 78 times per hour, assuming that is all you cast and you meditate every tick.

Best possible player DPS: (825 damage x 78 nukes) / 3600 seconds = ~18 DPS.

This means a Mage is going to be doing around 75 DPS with an unfocused level 60 Water pet while nuking. Troxx's original parse of around 80 DPS was accurate.

[Mon Aug 22 08:13:54 2022] You have slain froglok jin shaman!

6,549 damage over 93 seconds = 70.5 DPS

This is 70.5 DPS to a froglok jin shaman in Sebilis just using a 50% hasted Spirit of the Howler pet and Bane of Nife + Envenomed Bolt. The pet is not max level. He is hitting for 47, so that is a lower end pet (max is 52, each level increases damage by 2). No need to root/rot with this setup in a group, and the DoTs only last 7 or 8 ticks.

A single set of Bane of Nife + Envenomed Bolt costs 745 mana. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjZxMlJSCDc using this video, it looks like you can Torpor recover mana at around 14 mana per second. If you include C2, it is more like 16 mana per second. This means you can recover the 745 mana in 46 seconds. That is easily the length of a fight if Enchanters are fighting 2 mobs with charmed pets. This means the DPS is generally sustainable too.

I never ever claimed 175 dps. The peak dps was 175. The lowest combined was around 72. Most floated in the middling range 90-110 dps … you know … the average.

You are using a solo battle fight where your dots get to fully roll along for max damage. We are talking group dps and most of these fights lasted well under 30 seconds. You would have enough time to cast both spells and get maybe 2 ticks out of one and 1 out of the other.

Or did you forget what this thread was actually about?

No, the average is 80 DPS, as the math shows above lol. You can't escape it. Unless you were getting twitched, you don't spontaneously generate additional mana outside of what you can regenerate. In reality your DPS is lower, since you won't actually be able to do 78 nukes per hour, but I will strong man Mages just for the sake of argument.

Looks like karanis can't math either hehe. If you still think Mages are doing higher DPS after the actual numbers are proven, I don't know what to tell you.

I will even do the same calculation on my DoTs, so you don't think I am using some kind of trick.

A Shaman can regenerate around 16 mana per second. 3600 seconds x 16 mana = 57600. Bane + Envenomed bolt cost 745 combined, so 57600 / 745 = 77. So I can cast this combination around 70 times per hour realistically. The DoTs do NOT have to finish, because they always deal the same damage. (214 + 146) / 6 = 60 DPS flat. My pet does around 13 DPS on average, so you are looking at 73 DPS on average for a Shaman, unless you are killing more than 70 mobs per hour. In higher level zones usually you have lower kills per hour due to camp availabilities and 30 minute respawns. I am not even including clicking Epic.

Realistically speaking a Shaman could indeed keep up with a Mage's DPS if the group wanted it. But in reality having 2x Enchanters is DPS enough. The Mage isn't necessary at all. Better to have a Shaman's additional utility, and ask the Shaman to increase the DPS when needed.
