it's about using what's available, almost any class can farm spider silk and bone chips from level 1, this gives you access to cheap/good weapons around level 6-8 maybe 10 if you're bad. If you farm enough (iksars can get close to 800 silk before level 10) you can grab some HP/ac rings and you're off the races.

Except that from the standpoint of the OP farming spider silk and bonechips to sell for money to then use to buy powerful gear is cheating. He has to actually be level 50 to get that trash 50plat weapon. Auld rules for defining twinking are EXTREME to the maximum. He's not poor, he's choosing to avoid the economy entirely. He wants that minotaur axe to seem like the best weapon in the game for him at some point, like it did in 1999. He has to be level 34 to even attempt making his own 55hp ring (roughly, I forget the exact wording of the rule.)
Also @Jimjam at higher levels shaman don't get charm, so that does fall apart, slightly, but they get a lot of other awesome stuff to keep them from being sad. If you wanted charm and healing and utility though you'd have to be a druid. IIRC the highest level mob a shaman can ever charm is lvl33. (without something like puppet strings.)
