Yes a Ranger could tank slowed mobs and be healed by a Shaman. If however, a Shaman must do both, he will run out of mana pretty easily (sans C2 or some other mana augmentation such as Bard or Necro). You'd have to control the rate of pull.
it is not the slows that the shaman bring, enchaters can do that. It is the extra 1k hps post 50 a shaman can give that makes the difrence..... slows/and healing are Big bonuses.


on a side note, I will never understand(eventhough it is debuff) how a level 9 flamelick out agroes the majority of lvl 50 + spells. If i got hit by an ac debuff+3 per tick dot or an ice comet, Id sure as hell go after the 1k damage guy first Or the person that is healing them. <shrug>

Normally it'd be the opposite, but obviously this can be changed by gear. Rangers will tank worse than all plate classes and possibly monks (though monks can have a hard time holding aggro) and anecdotal evidence like the above is pretty useless. Of course a ranger doesn't tank better than a warrior by default.
Yep, thanks for your input. I covered my statement that you quoted just after had you read a little bit more. also as stated the ranger wasnt always the easiest to heal. My point overall, in case that escaped you, was that the answer is yes to the OP question.
