PoP era at a stretch and with a mount you could heal and slow but it really was quite brutal for having to constantly canni.

...wouldn't like to see a shaman main healing and having to slow here :/

If you're having trouble with mana, load up the lesser slow and carry on. Just wheel the big one out for lengthy encounters.

Most of the time with slow you hardly ever even have to heal. I've been in many groups (post-50) where the only healer is a shaman, who is maintaining slows and buffs. A heal comes once a mob? Maybe?

Most likely these days if the group's dps is well geared, which by the 40's is often the case [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It's when adds turn up or when the shit hits the fan that a shammie will struggle with no CC...slowing the mob is going to draw aggro, then its having to ghetto CC with root etc.

A standard group with a decent puller is a recipe for success... I just remember struggling with PoP content in terms of hard hitting mobs and having to main heal without CH, though torpor was a blessing [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I would say any class that had to slow, heal, and CC would have trouble being OOM...I mean that's basically everything needed to trivialize an encounter.

Unless you're a Bard, then it's just you doing what you do.
