shammy epic is a faction grind but you need the iksar tear from the iksar child in plane of fear is a hotly contested guild item (usually goes dkp) and they MQ for far greater price than monk epic MQ

monk epic most pieces are 1 groupable really - last mob xeno is pretty much 1 groupable if you have good enough gear

again - play style is key. shamans are casters and buffers - monks are expected to pull so that can be a big pro or a big con

Monk if you like raiding, play making or at the very least pulling.

Shaman if you like soloing, farming or dungeon crawling.

If you don't want to raid on the monk or you just want to show up and auto-attack, it's kind of a waste imho, but you will have a blast soloing 1-54 or so.

Meanwhile, Shaman won't really pick up until the later levels, but is super powerful once it does.
