Here is an age old question: Who would win if they were to duel, the shaman or the necromancer? I've never dueld my shammy but i've always wondered.

The most skilled player. That is of course if they were in a nekkid duel.

At the risk of sounding cynical, the most geared player.

with both, say, tacvi geared - my money's on the shaman. panther is hard to resist.

It would depend on the level of the players dueling, the advantage 2 lvl 70s might have over one another, are different then two level 40s.

Assumming both are equally geared and skilled, I would give advantage to the Shammy, however, I would not be surprised to see the shammy die shortly afetwards from DoTs if he is not quick enough with self heals and dispel magic.

The design of the necro is so advantageuous to slaughtering Mobs and not other players who ignore pets and can't be kited. While a shammy with his heals and nice offensive spells should be able to one up a necro all other things being equal.

I would tend to agree about having the shammy die a few moments after the necro or vise versa and pets would be laughable

How could he not be? He's got that belt with all those cool toys and stuff.

I would say, gear and levels being the same it would be the one with the faster reflexes and/or computer.

No way. Gamera defeated Godzilla and Gamera is a giant turtle and Lodizal is a giant turtle and shamans can solo Lodizal and Batman can beat a shaman so Batman > Godzilla.

I just proved it with science.

Does batman get any DoT's? I mean he has no real super powers. I guess his superior intellect beats everyone.

I'd put my money on the shaman.

Better at melee, cheap HoTs(that wont be resisted by your opponent), more life and more AC, the buffs.....oh ya SLOW(pet and necro though more so for pet...necro will most likely want to stay out of melee range)

My money would be on the Necro, Necro would have a better supply of Mana while the pet would be wacking away at the shaman. while the necro would splurt the shaman to death. Shaman pet would keep Necro at full health and the Necro would have to do is dispell his pet anytime a slow landed

To cosolidate.

The most skilled, geared, AAed character. Not necessarily in that order.

shaman pet wouldnt do **** for the necro. pets take on the resists of their owner. besides, if it did, one button to desummon it.

necro mana supply relies on them having a source of heals, something not guaranteed in a duel if you're talking about well geared chars.. or the shaman hitting infusion. shaman mana supply is huge too, and doesnt depend on the opposing player's resists.

splurt's also not a really-good resist check. It's pretty simple for a bazaar geared 70 to have over 200 resists these days. Panther/leopard are a -300 check, compared to splurts -100.

I see the necro pet getting slowed(and a slowed mob=nothing for a shaman).....and I can see the shaman sending out the pack along with some panthering pain that bashes the necro to hell(oh ya and the dots and what not)....the shaman has SS on.......damn......


TOH Shaman along with bards are my least favorite things to see in a guild duel in the arena.........personally I don't mind necros.....but shaman and bards........ack =/

Ask that question on Zek

I've had lots of time to ponder this question. I'm quite sure that the answer is 5.

zek pvp is rarely 1v1, and never fair.

on zek.. whoever was in <pandemonium> would win, because they wouldn't have engaged without at least two guild groups to help within a 20 second run.

42 is always the answer
