Is Grik The Exile good camp at 55?

The problem with shaman vs geos is that they are very disease and poison resistant, so without epic its tough to land a dot if you wanted to root rot them. Very low magic resistance though,if your into slow tanking.

Can confirm; I did some Geos on my shaman when he was in 57-59 and was quite surprised by how frequently my dots were resisted. They're still great if you have a duo that can bring all the damage, but trying to solo them was pretty painful without Epic. Not sure how fast Epic alone would kill them, so there's definitely other options out there better suited for a solo shaman.

You can JBB spam them if memory serves. OP is a troll, so they can use a JBB. Just slow tank and spam JBB. I was still able to land disease on them often enough if you use insidious decay I think, but it's been a while. If you don't have JBB you could spam hard cast your best DD. Not terribly efficient, but camping a single static spawn like Grik isn't efficient for a Shaman either. It's more about lazy play.

I do agree normally there are better options for a more active Shaman. It's a bit harder for me to think of lazy spots as OP is wanting. I believe I did do the FM Giants under the Fort at 55, but they resist a good amount as well at 55. I had Fungi Tunic, Fungi Staff, and JBB, so that helped. They are generally harder than Geos.

OP could also do goos from 55-57 or so. Did those in that level range on my SK. Only downside to goos is there are only two goo camps, so it's more likely they will be camped. Not sure how popular they are these days.
