As an update to this:
At lvl 14, quite a bit of the random wanderers are still yellow, and some are red. A few of the drakes are going green, but still give good exp, especially compared to the time and mana it takes to down one.
I did 3 yellow bars of exp last night, dinged 15, and made 35pp. I would guess 50pp per level, although that might actually increase since I will now be taking on more Rock Dervishes and Lava Basiliks (stackable eggs that go for 6gp!!). This isn't trivial at all to an untwinked 'toon, and the experience is actually better for me solo than Oasis/South Ro. was.
Although there are undeniable grouping opportunities to Oasis, that's all there is. I'd suggest Lavastorm to any evil Shammy who wants an alternative in the 14-19 level range. The exp is very good, and the loot is very good for the level, can fight by zone, and sell in zone (or you can bind in Neriak next to a Vendor like I did), so it meets the guide's original criterial for a good levelling place.
