IMO, SH does more dps than SW, due to the excesive and massive damage that spike squig is currenty doing in the server, and the new nerf of the SW's festerbombing specs, but, probably, SH has a little less survival capacities. However, they are just putting the pet on the target and they are letting them to do the work while they are fleeing away, so they don't need the survival abilities, just the pets do.
It's difficult to compare mirror careers in this game because they are never a 100% mirror image. SH is very similar to the SW, but SW is similar to the Mara too, and SH is a player with pet, like the WL, so, we mustn't try to balance SH with SW, we must balance full parties, or full warbands.
The better way to make a SW better than a SH is not to nerf the SH. Putting the SW in the correct place of the warband, being protected by other players, is the way.
Remember this game is not an arcade. It is a mmorpg, and sociability and teamworking make the real difference. So SH is better than any other careers cause the are always playing 2vs1 except vs WL, but WL has not range enough to reach those little greenskins, so SH is an OP career being mainly played by bad players that usually play in their own without group because they usually don't need a group to kill disorganized people.
That's why they are permacrying in the forums all the time: Cause they think they are so good players that the fact of being reckted by an organized and sociable player means necessaryly that their career is bad. But their first hypothesis is not true: They are not so good, so their conclusion is false too: The SH is not bad.
May Isha bless you!
