They have no real defensive CD's and no way of getting away. "Just use eartbind + ghost wolf, duh", isn't really a good argument since every class and their mother has a ton of gap closers. Another problem is that Elemental Shaman has to hard cast almost all of their spells, and almost all of them are on the nature school, which means interrupted? Completely locked out... Compared to a mage who I never see hard cast a frost bolt unless I'm stunned, polymorphed or silenced.
Everything an Elemental Shaman can do, a Mage can do better. I suggest you spare yourself the pain and reroll for pvp, that's what I did. =/
