The Elec/Shield Scrapper, and a SS/Shield Brute will kill the fastest. SS/Shield is prob the fastest of the two.

I honestly doubt that (Unless you are planning on running very high difficulty where burst counts for less).|

In a situation where there are 16 mobs with unlimited HP (Or lots of HP) then Footstomp will outdamage Lightning Rod, but when farming (Or generally killing groups of mobs quickly for whatever reason) you just cannot beat the burst damage of Lightning Rod.
I run +0/x8 (Could easily do +2 but everytime I put the diff up I get a Devouring Earth tip mission!) and LR > Fireball > Thunderstrike kills the first mob just in time for me to get to the second mob with BU > SC > Fireball > Thunderstrike. If I didn't have the second mini-nuke then my efficiency in every other group would drop.
If you are running on +4 then since the mobs will survive through my chain you may well be better being able to spam footstomp, but even then I could BU > Fireball> LR > SC > Thunderstrike > Fireball which would probably kill a mob, and I can do that every ~25 seconds.

I run Fire/Shield and SS/Shield builds similarly built and similarly awesome. I'm more comfortable on the Fire/Shield scrapper. No Rage crashing and I rarely find myself in a situation where Foot Stomp's superior range matters. FSC does amazing damage when built up and saturated. Add up Fireball and Shield Charge and it's all gravy. Maybe not numerically superior to my SS/Shield/Mu... maybe... but I enjoy it more.
You can always mix it up a bit and go Elec/Shield Scrapper, Shield/Fire Tanker, SS/Shield Brute.
Out of those, the Brute is the only one who doesn't have sucky ST damage.
Need some advice on a good farming and Fast killling Sheild
Scrapper: Fire/sheild Ele/sheild or Dark/sheild
Tanker: Sheild/SS Sheild/Fire Sheild/Ele Sheild/Dark
Brute: Same as the tank but switched around :3
