Low-level Shaman mana efficiency

I had good results switching from offensive spells to purely using mana on heals (including switching from Light Healing to Inner Fire). As I got closer to 20 I began adding back slows/dots.

I was in a full group where I felt a little like the odd one out. We had a monk, rogue, cleric, shadowknight, enchanter, and me, so I guess all the specialist roles were already filled. I ended up just acting as secondary tank, and it went well enough. Is there any spell (like Flame Lick) for druids to keep aggro?

Now I'm tunnel-questing for silver chitin hand wraps and a poison wind censer before venturing out to face-tank some more, looking forward to next level for canni/regen.

Slow is great aggro, btw

Snare neck, flash of light, jbb... Nonstop fearkite at 45

This doesn't work. The snare neck isn't a big snare and flash of light is very low duration. They will run out of range of JBB a lot and you'll still be getting hit at times while trying to keep the Snare/Flash/JBB effects going. You also lose pet and melee DPS if you're trying to do this. It's better to just slow the target and tank it.

If you have a jbb, it's easier to just cast regen, and use all mana just for roots and spam bracer. After mob is dead, canni and regen the health back while spamming jbb on the next mob. Keep pet up to reclaim pet if you happen to go oom l.

I found that I would fight like a hybrid melee class until level 24 when the new spells ramp up in power and I felt like a caster until level 34 when I got a pet and I went back to melee and this time meleeing everything stuck as slow becomes more powerful each time you level. If you're going toe to toe with the mobs then buff up your stats like hp, strength, dex, agi, stamina and always have regen on.
