Yup Shaman are great. My set up is Pally, Shamanx3, priest and they kick a$$ as the 3 dps, there is a shaman on the priest account but only 60 atm.

Daggerspine Alliance: Phoebus(Tank), Soozanuna(Heals/Tailor), Angakak (Enchanter), Wakantanaka(Herb/Alch), Znakharka, Jonhyone(JC), Marious(Other Tank/BS), Magnux(Enchanter), Coyolxhauqui(LW)
People are saying that shamans and Pally are SO easy... Maybe I just dont underdstand on how to keep ranged from attacking at melee. Is there someone that would share their macros or at least how they set up their opening attacks. I am trying with this 5 pack and the poor pally does not do anything.
I love my shammies. I am running with a prot pally, 3 elem shamans, and 1 resto shaman and just am blowing away most heroics now that they are geared. I hardly have to heal now during trash pulls besides keeping earth shield up and healing totems. Grounding totems, healing stream totems, cleansing totem, tremor totems, resist totems just provides a ton of utility to handle various fights. The other great thing is they can take a few hits before dying in heroics (non-bosses) which gives me time to recover on bad pulls, etc.
Anyways, tank + 4x shamans is a great team to make especially if you are new to boxing like I was when I made mine. Tons of fun!

On button 7:
/castsequence reset=9 Holy Shield,Hammer of the Righteous,Judgement of Light,Shield of Righteousness,Consecration,Hammer of the Righteous,Holy Shield,Shield of Righteousness,Judgement of Light,Hammer of the Righteous,Consecration,Shield of Righteousness
I have the option of Avenger Shield, Consecrate, Divine Plea and Holy Shield as single casts.
If I use a modifier key, when I press 1, the Paladin doesn't waste mana on the Holy Shield or spam me with "out of range" messages.
The Elemental Shammies use:
/Cast Elemental Mastery
/Click MutliBarRightButton6
/Click MultiBarRightButton7
/Click MultiBarRightButton8
/Click MultiBarRightButton9
On Button 6:
/castsequence [target=target, harm] [target=targettarget, harm] reset=combat Flame Shock,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
On Button 7:
/castsequence [target=target, harm] [target=targettarget, harm] reset=combat Lava Burst,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
On Button 8:
/castsequence [target=target, harm] [target=targettarget, harm] reset=combat Chain Lightning,,,,,,
On Button 9:
/cast [target=target, harm] [target=targettarget, harm] Lightning Bolt
Fire: Totem of Wrath, Frost Resistance, Searing Totem, Searing Totem
Water: Mana Spring, Healing Stream, Healing Stream, Cleansing.
Air: Wrath of Air, Grounding, Grounding, Grounding.
Earth: Tremor, Strength of Earth, Stoneskin, Earthbind.
All the shammies have a button to drop Totem of Wrath, for the Glyph buff.
The all use Water Shield. They are all buffed with Kings.
Pally uses Seal of Vengeance, and Sanctuary Blessing.
I have Fire Elementals, Thunderstorm, Earthbind, and Fire Nova's on Round-Robin.
I have Grounding, Cleansing as a everyone drops this option.
I have Tremor as a stagger option (so spam 4 times over 3 seconds).
One of my shammies is dual spec to Resto.
When she's resto, she only DPS's when ALT is held.
She has the same DPS macro's as the others, except Chain Lightning is at the normal cast speed.
She has a keybind to Earth Shield the tank. Aside from the Earthliving weapon buff, her buffs are the same.
I can Mana Tide on a keybind. She is responsible for Mana Spring in either spec, to take advantage of the talents to Mana totems when she's resto.
Using G15 keys, she can individually Healing Wave or Riptide any toon.
Her Lesser Healing Wave and Chain Heal assist off of the tank's target.
I have a different keybind for all elemental shammies to Lesser Healing Wave the same way. So they can support the resto, or I have decent heals even without a resto in the party.
Pretty basic set up.
But a lot of synergy; everyone is a caster.
yeah, I think any way you slice it this is probably the optimal setup for those that prefer a paladin tank. The druid buffs bring *a lot* to the group. Wishing I had more motivation to get one from 0 to 80!Tank + 3x shaman + (b)druid has my vote now. But ya, stacking shaman is pimptastic.
Thank you so much this is exactly what I was looking for was a little help to point me in the right direction.
Love 4 eles with a dk tank (even with the recent dk tanking nerfs)
Who needs heals anyway? http://stoat.org/wow/WoWScrnShot_081609_135259.jpg top 2 shaman had healing stream down the whole time, 3rd had cleansing when needed and the last had mana spring.
US-Frostmourne Alliance
4 ele shaman + dk (mage)
priest + 4 locks team now 80, bored again
