I've always wondered about levelling hybrids. When you first start a druid/shaman, you inevitably start casting, and finishing with melee (I'm talking 1-10) simply because you don't have any active melee abilities. Would it be worthwhile to throw your white +dmg casting gear on the druid/shaman for those first 20 levels (cat form for druids, T.Strikes&sham focus for shamans) and level as a caster?
Good: Probably doing more damage than a melee class at that level (50 spell damage at lvl 1 is pretty hefty), round out the rest of your gear with heavy spirit, and you'd regen pretty fast.
Bad: Reliant on mana, probably slightly more downtime (mitigated by spirit on gear).
I've levelled 2 of each, but both the standard "no help beyond 14 slot bags and a little gold" kind of way, and it hurts. As compared to a hunter or rogue, hybrids don't level nearly as fast.
