If you're casting any spells besides superior healing and annul magic (I'll concede torpor in very specific circumstances) in a mass PVP fight you're doing it wrong. I guess some canni's would be ok too.

I'm sorry but I just generally disagree, in every skilled pvp fight I've ever been in it was important for a shaman to pair with an enc to malo/tash knock out high priority targets. A shaman is not a cleric and shouldn't be played like one. Everyone should be dispelling with pumice on called targets.
You cannot just drop torpors in mass pvp the snare effect will be the death of someone. Every spell is very situational and there is no blanket role for a shaman in pvp. You should be dispelling, healing when needed, maloing, hell even a cripple on a cleric is the end of them when snare/encumbered. While a well timed bane of nife can force a bard out of fight and drop an entire group without speed support.
A shaman is a highly versatile class, who's role can change in the blink of an eye pvp. Sure you can play them like a buff/heal bot but you'll never be a great shaman playing that way and are failing your guild by not using all the weapons at you're classes disposal.
