Have you been grouping with me? I'm new to shaman and I do melee quite a bit (only level 16 atm). I get my buffs on tanks and dps, and maybe throw inner fire on the casters. I'll slow the mobs and then melee if I'm above 60m.
Most groups I'm in have another healer and we pull 2-4mobs at a time. I'll grab one with a slow and let it beat on me for a bit (full banded). Then because my heals suck I'll cast inner fire 15 times to get my hp back up.
I know this won't last. It doesn't work all the time at this level. I was in a croc group where I just slowed and healed and I was happy with that. I honestly thought there was more healing in shaman class as I always roll healers.
I also do switch out weapons to keep all the skills up, but I ask the group if they mind, and never during dangerous spots.
