I haven't played a Shaman but can they do aoe farming? Was thinking something along the lines of a frost mage of rounding up mobs, freezing them then AOE'ing them down.
Would like to level a shaman and a little aoe grinding helps a bit.

I AoE farm fine on my elemental shaman. Grab around 6-7 mobs, sit in one spot with a magma totem, and heal myself until they die. Use Thunderstorm if I'm in need a break.

ele definitely has the edge with thunderstorm, but that is only cuz it tags everything for you. Any other shaman can still aoe, just more of a pain to tag everything.
Also, since no one else mentioned it, after you drop magma, you drop stoneclaw, both protects all other totems and takes the hits for you.

Eww that is too much work Buttery had a much better idea here's how i do it: Drop your stoneclaw 1st bcuz it'll taunt and it puts a dmg bubble on your totems, then get glyph of stoneclaw because then it'll give u a bubble 4x stronger then the one on your totems, then u magma, which hits alot harder then it used to in classic but people don't seem to say that much.
Then U CL casting it through your bubble without getting interupted.
Now shock any targets you haven't tagged and melee any other ones once shock is in cd.
Be ready to heal and refresh magma totem as it is only lasts like 18s?
It's really ez and as long as you have the mana to heal and totem up which u should bcuz ur using water shield to get all ur mana back while things wail on u right?
The better gear u have the way easier this strat gets, better with elem 4 sure but works perfect with any spec.

At end game I find AOE farming to be easy, Chain lightning a group, drop earthbind to root them, along with Magma totem and run circle around the magma totem. Just keep refreshing earthbind and magma when you need to keep from taking much if any damage.
Compare this to when I'm on mage - Blizzard a group, Frost Nova if they live long enough to get to me.
