Best 4 person all caster/priest group

The main reason why you would want a Cleric is because charmed pets have a lot of HP in later levels. The level 49 Sebilis mob I was testing DPS on has at least 8000 HP. Having CH is really convenient for healing a pet quickly. Also, Torporing a pet will slow the pet, so they deal less damage. Torpor does work fine on healing the casters, since they do not melee the mobs anyway. The slow is irrelevant.

I agree with you though, you could probably just have a pocket cleric sitting around for Res and CH when needed. Just have the Shaman swap to the Cleric so the Enchanters don't lose their pets.

OP doesn't have a cleric in his group, he has a Necro and a Shaman. That will be good enough for any normal healing situation. It doesn't take long to heal a pet with Torpor or Necro heals in-between pulls, or waiting for respawns. If you are close to the mobs respawn point, you could also just break charm, lull, mem blur, and let the pet heal itself.

The first legit mention of pocket clerics 2125 posts in. Ironically at this time DSM is still seeing the value of complete heal on massive hp pets and there is no mention of torpor tanking as the strategy the group will favor employing.

My my my how the sands of time have shifted DSMs arguments

Mages do way more dps then shaman, sorry I didn't read all the 200 pages but I saw somewhere someone said a mage only does a little more dps then shaman... crazy, fluffy alone can wreck rog dps in some areas, combine chain nukes and look out!

This one made me truly giggle and smile. Not only is Allishia correct, she so innocently doesn’t know that “somewhere someone said a mage only does a little more dps than a shaman” . Somewhere? Someone? Lol the entire 200 pages leading up to this post were about mostly only that.

Kudos Allishia for being simultaneously correct and mercifully unaware of the dumpster fire she wandered into.

I have a 60 shaman too but I've never considered her to be dps...the dots are fun but...mob dead before they even land sometimes lol + I really hate they took away dot messages, it's just not the same without seeing the dmg...
