Malee is not a word, the word you are looking for is melee.
Secondly,
YOU CAN BUILD A MELEE GROUP WITHOUT A SHAMAN, ALLIANCE DO THIS ALL THE TIME.
Just because you dont take an enhancement shaman, doesnt imply you havent set up your groups to maximize melee dps with TSA, battle shout and windury totem. Your points are spurious and mute. Look at the groups I built, they match your group with the sole difference I used a resto shaman instead of an enhancement shaman; the only differences are the small AP bonus from iSoE, iWF and shamanistic rage. I dont know what you mean when you say BoK/BoM/BS/TSA scale.. they clearly dont scale at all whatever type of shaman you put in a group except possibly BoK depending on how it interacts with shamanistic rage. Further, you can not interchange an elemental and restoration shaman in this way.
Anyway this is not the thread to debate the realtive merits of shaman specs. Suffice to say that on paper both appear to provide more utility and DPS/healing than replacing said shaman with a paladin. |

I'm aware how to spell melee; it was a small typo. /gasp
Except those are not small differences. You still don't realize that 10% more AP when full buffed is more dps than 3% more crit/hit on casters. Especially when more than half of those casters gain nothing from the crit bonus. unleashed rage *scales* the shitload of melee buffs available in this game because it's based on %AP, hence scaling the rest of AP buffs (Someone correct me if i am wrong there please). iGoA or iWF
are not minor buffs, especially in a full melee group.
Anyways, i'm sure someone will come up with exact numbers soon.
EDIT: unleashed rage even.
