I picked this up as the only shaman in the raid and I use it in my healing set most of the time because I love the look of it. Who needs stats when you look awesome?
I've leveled as elem and enhance. elemental kills things faster, but as enhancement i had much less downtime since you can basically SS to open and then auto attack for the rest and then just heal as needed between fights. if you keep up water shield you can throw in shocks to speed up fights and still keep up your mana pretty well. and if you do get low you can shamanistic rage to get mana back.
i didnt switch to resto until after 70 but i could heal decently as a elemental with resto off spec.
also, i hate soloing as resto, just because it takes a while to kill things. you have good survivability since you can ES to stay alive and heal without pushback while just spamming LB to kill. you also have mana tide to get back mana
