So I finally just finished fully augmenting my monk (dont have access to hates fury yet) and now im starting to do my Shaman. However im wondering what I should be running for augments for weapon. I bought the Mastiggian for my mainhand, and i also have the heal overtime proc, offhand has the DoT proc, otherwise its shit. Im wondering if I should run a shield wall, reapers will, infused damage, or bite of the dark serpent(life drain) for 1600 AAs.

Don't know much about Mistaggan, so not sure if it's good. Optimum setup will probably look like this:
Epic 2.0 or Abyss Knuckle Dark Serpent Infused Damage Mistaggan (If it's not type 4 only, I can't remember.)
Abyss Knuckle Crescent HoT Infused Damage Shield Wall
Abyss Boomerang Nothing Hawk Eye Reaper's Revenge

I believe mistiggian is the same as dark serpent in terms of augment slot. I saw another one of the monks using it in the guild, thought it was supposed to be awesome for us. Woops sounds like I wasted 1600 aa. Keep it for when o need more survivability or something. I should have known. 45 sec cool down is very long. Thanks for the response

Mistiggan > all
Avoiding damage = win.

Well glad we established that. Thank you sturm. So now I have to decide f I want shield wall or serpent. And I'm not sure I like the HoT from crescent on my offhand. It's what I've been using for ages but I just now started using my brain. I think if I'm reading this correctly it's a heal V2 which is also what my halcyon zephyr rank 3 is (shaman). I try to always have my halcyon up, so therefore my hot is worthless. Maybe swap over to direct heal?

If you're using halcyon then yes, the HoT is worthless. However, from my experience it's better to spam big heals than to recast a HoT in tough fights. So it's going to be very situational. It will depend on if it's a long and tough fight, short and tough fight, long and easy fight, short and easy fight.
I took a look at Mistiggan with MQ2 and it actually looks really good. Even without the proc it adds a good amount of base damage. The proc has 11s duration, 45s cooldown, and 0s recovery so it won't disturb LT procs. It's also type 4,7 and 8 like I thought so that's good.
I recommend the setup in my previous post. If you don't use the HoT then I suggest the DoT. Direct heal isn't that great because it doesn't scale very well with Heal Amount stat last I checked.

Thanks for the input again. Yeah if its a "hard" fight, i cant really do it. Shamans are nice for their extra damage (talisman) and languor, but otherwise... i only have one healing spell aside from my one HoT. If it doesnt proc it heals like 25k... pretty limited in fights if i need to burn mana and get big heals, since its impossible for me to drop below 100% mana with my one heal

Does twincast heal proc off of those 3s+ heals? It says instant, but my pally's 1s heals twincast.

Honestly I don't know. I haven't had any problems with content up until tacvi and now CM. I am going to tentatively say yes because there are times where my heal does 20-25% and then sometimes it'll do 50-75%. Could be from a crit heal but I'm not sure. I literally had 0 augments on my shaman up until two days ago, and had very little vis gear til last week. So I don't think I even had twincast added effect. I imagine getting all the augments makes a big difference in heals. Atleast I'm hoping anyway. I now have access to InnyB so hopefully tomorrow I'll fully augment (I have 2500 AAs and 500k atm) my shaman and we'll see if I can't take down some stronger bosses. Atm my monk can solo all the bosses minus CM. I need to go back and read the forums for the custom quests and such also. I've heard those are imperative to being able to progress. The two that I know of epic 2.0 and shawl.

Reminds me of the marshmallow experiment about delayed gratification.

What is Shield Wall? It didn't jump out at me from Greedy Goblin so don't know if it has a different name or comes from somewhere else? Thanks!

Shield Wall drops in InnyB off of the nameds. 75AC 1KHP. Procs Resplendent Glory 1, which increased effectiveness of heals
