At this stage of the game I only use totems for big fights. Looking forward to my 41 talent point and the crits that come with it.

Don't get me wrong.. I had fun with the mixed team for quite a while. But found there was really no subbing in my guild mates. Also found that I wasn't fond of doing instances by myself. They were super fun (and effective) in world PvE.. had a lot of fun questing and getting them to 70. Once I got those flying mounts though (and did a few dailies) got kind of bored. Found that it was becoming something of an obligation to do my dailies to get them gold. Felt like I was not doing my "job" if I didn't do my dailies.... sounds sad I know but it really discouraged me.

I also didn't like saying no to guild invites to doing heroics but when I was playing my group I wanted to play my group.

So I am hopeful that the shammans will solve a lot of my problems... if they don't... meh.. I'm having fun leveling them.
