I played a ranger of live and had both a cleric and shaman friend I would frequently duo with. While having the CHeal of the cleric was nice, basically everything Ephirith said is spot on. The guaranteed slow from the shaman (which will be a better slow than swarmcaller) more than makes up for their lack of healing firepower compared to a cleric. Not only that, but their stat buffs and especially haste will make things go down much faster. In my experience, the answer is Shaman every time.
