Shade is useless in team if compare with MA... MA got RI (+120 evades) an MoP (+7% crit chance) and can buff team8s with it. Shades - nerfs... only good at camping dryads / soul dredges in Ado :)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Umm, shades aren't brought into teams for their buffing abilities. Shades are strictly for DD. And they do that VERY well. So if it's buffs you want, grab an MA *shrugs* But if you want that mob killed faster, ditch the MA and get a shade :D

unfortunately there aren't to many high-level shades out there, at least not on RK1... and i'd rather have a 220 soldier in a team than a shade, due to the 35%+ less damage for the whole team, the ability to TMS taunt/tank the mobs or an add, and being able to add 20% reflect to the enfo in a tight spot, also the large damage buffs and suppressive horde effect for the entire team... if a 220 soldier gets ODed in a team by another other than a shade, he's either gimp, too lazy to FA every 11s, or it's because of the extra damage he's bringing to the MA/engie... having said that, at hecks and in pen missions most of the other soldiers on my team were using lame damage buffs or shield auras that they should have been able to outdate many many levels ago, and unlike agents who can cap AS at about level 3, soldiers have to wait till 210-215 to cap FA at 11s... WTB justice!

Anyone else think Questra is a solier? // Anyhow, why would you pass up a shade or ma, just grab them both and watch the mobs drop.

The best damage team is a team of 5 shades and a trader. Sacrafice FTW!

People fighting over dumb things. =P Shades are the best DD and thats is why they probably have the least acs and HP. They are assassins and are meant to take someone out FAST so they don't die. At 220 shades beat MAs by far but from my experience, my MA outdamaged any shade from 100-150. To the point where I would be tank. But late game it's no contest between the two. Although I have never seen a soldiers damage at 220 so I can't tell you which is better. If perks land, I would go with shade 100%! ^^
