I'd say, don't play a shaman. I'm a 50 shaman. But in no ideal group do you want a shaman. You're a poor man's healing option, a poor man's dps option.
Shaman's most min max best role in a group is prolly the tank. Drowsy spam for aggro, decent enough mitigation and a smaller XP penalty than Paly/SK/Ranger. Wars are teribad aggro.

Definitely not. No parry, no riposte, max 75 dodge; yes you can get aggro, but no one wants you to with such low mitigation. Warriors might not be great at getting aggro compared to the knight classes or even a Ranger, but I’d much rather just cast root on the mob and let the War tank it over a Shaman. To put it in perspective, a Rogue is a far better tank than a Shaman.
Shaman best role is off-healer/utility (can be a decent main healer if they stay up on Canni-dancing/regen). Malo, slowing mobs 40+, moderate nuking ability.
