What makes Druids Better Soloer's than DruidsFollow

I was just curious I have a lv 28 shaman and a lv 26 druid and the shaman can solo with a greater amount of ease due to his more powerful dots, I was just wondering what makes a druid better because that is what I keep hearing

And im talking about the mid-lvs, not like uber lv 60 planar stuff.

thanks

Quad and charm kiting.

In answer to your question...nothing really.

Shaman get slow,canni, and big dots where druids get snare, aes for quad kiting and decent nukes for dps.

They are both equally good if not better for shaman since with canni its not as much downtime.

Druids are better soloer's than druids because...Wait a sec. WTH?

The title of this post threw me for a loop

Well, my RL bud has a 66 Shaman and I a 66 druid.
We can both solo pretty effectively. Where the Shaman gets better DPS from Dots and the pet, the druid can snare to kite and the Druid Roots seem better than the Shammies for root/rot.

Now where we can both solo pretty good.....together we rock!
Lately he and I have been taking on MPG, and each of our classes blend great! Each handling the others short fallings.

But as to Who's better?
Who ever has the most toys of course!

Not sure it matters 'who is best' by whatever definition you give for 'best'.

As a druid I stopped doing much solo after level 50 or so. My main solo technique was to root-rot. My feeling was that quadding was WAY too much work. I used to quad greens when farming tradeskill stuff and that's about it. Maybe wizards have better AE nukes, but the druid AEs even the level 49 one is gimp.

After 50 and into 60s many mobs SUMMON and that is usually bad for squishy druids.

Only raised a shammy to 38. He can solo some but it is now getting to the point where a real tank is needed.

So either class can solo, most people think druids are better, meaning faster xp, since they can quad but it's all in how you want to play.

well what i would say being a 70 druid myself and having a 70 shaman as well on my second account is that the druid, can dot it up, and if he gets into a bind he can egress, succor, exodus where a shaman has the only option to gate or do the FD thing lol but as far as killing, i mean we aren't that badass that everyone thinks, yeah we got a 14 minuet snare, thats nice, and a 5 min root is really nice too but my dot's with burning affliction 5 and the crit aa's i don't do anything near what a necro or a shaman can lay down, also with the shaman pet aa to make copies of thier pet thats very nice, the only thing we really got up on people is the fact we can go pretty much where ever we need to go in like 2 minuets or less thats about it. we got the ability to travel, as do wizards.

now moving over to wizard side yes they kite very well they can do almost anything a druid can, i think what makes druids a little better is the heals.

shamans get them too yes but they don't get straight out nukes and snare so it's all really balanced cause to make up for snare.. pull with slow.

thats all i have to say, it's all balanced in the end between shaman's, necro's, wizard's and druid's.

Not arguing against soloing. Just said quadding was too much work. Haven't done much soloing since 50 cause I've had more fun in groups.

Graveyard in Katta I have found a hard time spawning mobs. You kill one and the next one doesn't seem spawn for several minutes even running over every square inch to trip the trap.

Draniks, too many possible adds to kite, plus some mobs summon.

Tried charming in PoN, too unreliable at the time. Need a higher level charm. Not a place to run out of mana either. Only been there in groups. Place gives me the creeps hehe...

I have found root/charm unreliable in OoW places like Draniks (do not have the root AA yet).

I absolutley HATE wasting 3/4 of my mana on one mob, only to have to succor out before I get any xp or loot because of adds or spells not landing or holding or whatever. Or worse, getting blind-sided by adds and end up begging for a rez in the Guild Lobby.

I have just found it more enjoyable in groups, with a tank holding aggro and cleric healing. Then I can pretty much do whatever is needed, DPS, root, snare, debuff, spot heal, buff, evac, etc., much more fun if you ask me.

What mobs is a druid soloing in MPG? I was under impression most mobs there summon....
