I really enjoy 2v2 with a Shaman, If my pummel isnt resisted ( or just plain misses which sucks ) we have a great chance to get the paladin to bubble early or at least BoF himself so that we can kite the warrior a bit.
My partner is a rerolled\new shaman obviously, but the correct use of earthshock, he was previously a mage, can be the end of a lot of teams. I think one thing that makes or breaks things for us is just the coordination of interupts.
Just having Intimidating Shout up as another spell break wins the match for us a lot. Of course it also doesnt hurt to have 4k-5k damage in one 'round' with WF and MS if two of 3 crit, heroism and deathwish.
While I know shaman are not nearly as durable, I think Earthshield, Nature's Guardian and the chance with the right gear to really contribute some serious DPS into an unbelievably quick cooldown interupt can more than make up for it. Granted that our objective is to have the paladin bubble\half way dead\dead by the time those 37(?) seconds of Heroism are up.
The blacksmith mace seems to need a bit of a retune. We find it often doesnt amount to much, or it completely dominates a match. Since most every team I see with it is a paladin team, I wonder if combined with WF, you could really make good use of it.
