I'd second this. I used a BSH before the proc nerf, and even back then it wasn't all that great. Now (after the proc nerf) it's still fun, but not a meaningful source of damage overall.

As for what to do with your toon, maybe I'm a little biased as a two-time (once on live, once here) Barbarian Shaman, but I didn't miss regen or FSI at all. Also, being able to use "good" towns is convenient, and while I wasn't conscious of it I'm sure the much lower XP penalty helped me get to 60 faster.

If I was making a third shaman I might start with an Ogre or Troll just to do something different, but I certainly wouldn't re-roll a toon to become one.
