4 shaman do more dps then any single dps.

1 healer heals more then 4 elemental shaman.

So you can or chose to spent time healing yourself if you want to paly at max efficiency or you can take a healer along and only heal when it's really needed.

I find that i'm double as effective when i got an awesome healer with me, since once you go defensive as 4 shaman without a healer, it's tough to get some proper offense going vs 3-5+ players.
