I like mage-cleric over mage shammy, but agree those are the best two choices. Necro or 2nd mage is superfluous, you just want the pet always at full health and killing. cleric vs. shammy - lull, more mana efficient heals, DA, more wiggle room w cleric buffs ... vs. canni and melee buffs.

Will have to disagree. The shaman would bring more to the table having slows and tossing on poison dots to help burn down the mob quicker. Not to mention at later levels the addition of the pet would allow for much speedier kills then what the cleric would bring. Faster the mob dies less you have to heal anyway not to mention the slow decreases the damage the mage pet would sustain tremendously. I think shaman is a complete better partner for a mage over a cleric.
