phys dmge 2x > phys + fire
this is why I don't advise shamans for people like you.
The advantage of fire + summoning is tactics, not numbers. A hammerdin has an 18k damage attack. But he can't hit shit with it
Tornado & Grizzly are both melee range attacks, and thus a druid that used both would have no long ranged attacks. He'd still be utterly useless against trappers, campers, etc, like a wind druid is. You'd end up just using tornado all the time and the grizzly would be pointless. With a shaman, you have two long ranged attacks (fissure / volcano), along with 'ultra blaze' (geddon), all covering your ranged niche.
let me put it this way: FOH does less damage than Impale, and its lightning instead of physical, but which would you rather use in PvP?
