I have to agree with all that's said here and add a little,
there's 2 ways to PL someone from what I've seen, the way they've talked
about here putting a damage shield on you and healing you as and when
you need it, or taking the mob down to about 50% then you finish it off.
Lets take the first one for example, DS and heal. the DS hurts the
mob before they hit you, you don't get hit as much and usually not as
hard so your defense doesn't go up. Because the DS is damaging them you
don't have to hit as much as normal so your attack doesn't go up either.
Yes being PL by a druid or a class equal to them will get you to 65 in a
hurry but you're going to be a wimp unable to either take a hit or make
a hit leading to yours and possibly your groups untimely death. You're
also not going to be using your spells as much as they're going to be
rooting the mobs for you.... can we say fizzle city here, you can't save
your group or yourself if you can't cast once before your oom

Skills, skills, skills, skills, skills, skills,

I hate to be the one to say this but you really should
focus on your battle skills. Trust me, at the lower levels that is a
perfect time to get the skills built up. I can understand wanting to go
in and just beat the heck out of everything and being uber and killing
it all in one shot. But ponder this, When you get to be up in levels
(50's, 60's, and 70's) you are going to be taking on some majorly nasty
monsters. If you have just gained levels and have an uber weapon but
never really worked on your fighting skills and they are low, it's not
going to help you or your party out very much. Actually you will hurt
your group more than help them. Now being a Shammy you have some awesome
spells at higher levels. This is another thing I would suggest focusing
on. If your at a higher level and your fighting say a dragon and 60% of
your casts fizz then you may as well run or be able to hit! (See
first part otherwise your gonna get killed or your group
killed.
That's just my 2 cents.
