I took my shammy from 11-14 kiting yellow baby mammoths in EF - SOW on, stand at casting limit, cast Tainted Breath, run for 10 secs, stop for 2 secs (to avoid interrupts), cast Sicken, take 26 damage as he catches up to you, run til DOTs drop, rinse and repeat. Very simple, they seldom resist, and you take little damage even if you stand and recast on fizzles and resists. Worst case abort and run to Bandl and Dom so they kill the mob(s) if you get too low on health mana or (as was usually the case) pick up an orc or skelly that cause interrupts when you stop to cast. At 11 I got almost 2 blue from some yellows, and at 14 about 3/4 of a blue each. There's 4 spawns near Bandl (one on the flat acorss from them, one in the gulley behind the hill, and 2 N of the flat so lots ot keep busy. I could usually kite 2 before needing to med/heal.
I could've stayed another level or two but once I got 14 and bind I headed to Oasis for crocs and EC to buy gear.
Regards,

Yeah, maybe that's the way to go. I stopped kiting when I hit 11 since the dot damage was getting kind of low by itself and I thought I'd want to back it up with melee, but my gear is crap so I'm probably better off kiting (I'm an ogre, not a barb, so I'm in SRo right now). I'll kite yellows until 14 - thanks.
