I wouldn't go out of the way for it, but I don't play shaman. I can only share a similar druid experience since they have pretty much same clickies, just different name.

I played a druid to 60. I had 2 dps clickies, epic clicky eventually, and the bracer (druid version of JBB). I literally stopped using the bracer early on because the damage is too low for farming or leveling, and cast time is too long. It was cool mana free damage for a few levels for rare situations, but it just became easier to use normal spells and not waste time on this slow casting bracer.

Not sure if it's same for shaman, but seems similar.

It's better on a Shaman. Shaman's can't kite like Druids do. The free damage clickie is very nice, and saves a ton of mana. Before Torpor this is key to leveling quickly.

For Druids it's better to kite and use https://wiki.project1999.com/Luminescent_Staff . Sadly Shaman's don't have good snares or good AoE.
