The problem is that even when I DoT then Root then Med, at this level my DoT's do very little damage. I always end up having to melee them at least half of their health, which gets me way down on my health and mana. I'm in full banded armor too. Of course I am still using mostly rusty weapons except for the low level quest hammer you get in Halas, so that doesn't help either I'm sure.

What level are you?
Edit: Ah 16 OK well I've found that the melee miss rates for Shaman on Green, for whatever reason, seem higher than blue (although this could just be the effect of everything feeling harder as we are not twinked). I used to melee on all my Shaman on blue even into the 50's but have found root/rotting to be more efficient, even with the low level DOT's. I even bought a Combine weapon and have hardly used it.
At your level the Karana's are your playground unless you want to group in dungeons. East Karana for the gorge hounds, gnolls, dark stalkers, war hounds, griffawns etc. Then you could move onto Crag Spiders. Also North Karana is good for the beetles such as borer etc.
Hang with it til 24 as your gameplay changes a lot when you get Cannibalise.
