They're equal right now, imo. Ench+cle is better for plowing through a bunch of trash mobs, but ench+sham is better at killing very difficult mobs. The thing webrunner doesn't mention that makes shamans as appealing a partner as clerics is that, even though the cle has superior buffs and heals + can help with stuns, the shaman has malo, malosini, the best slow in the game, and the ability to tank things reasonably well. Ench+cle leans too heavily on the chanter for stuff like spore king or drusella or whatever, sham takes some of the load off of the ench while also making the job easier overall.

It seems like the best thing for each duo is soon going to be obsolete though. Invis pull nerf/fix will stop ench+cle from pulling all of south (and sometimes some of east!) every spawn cycle, and it will stop ench+sham from duoing king (I think).
