Question - shm dps

[mcarpe]

Not Kiss specific I guess but lately I have seen SHM dps be quite impressive, especially in raid content. Does anyone have the skinny on lining up a SHM dps ini for kiss etc?

Really? Shaman dps is impressive? Is this some kind of weird progression server thing?

I don't raid or solo, but sham might do decent dps with the poison/disease dots that trigger a second version if they last over a minute? Kind of like a necro, they need the mob to survive awhile to really get their dps number up.

In EoK T1 with a 6-box, nothing but giants lasts beyond 30 seconds. I haven't done parsing, but I like putting them in a melee heavy group and having them buff with Lions (13k dd proc) then just lob spears/short dots. Still I think they are bottom tier DPS for group stuff.

Ya, with the new dot lines a well played shaman can put up some good solo dps numbers or general dps numbers if the fights last long enough (see >10-20 secs)....
