DM matches well with /invul due to the heal, but then DM matches well with pretty much anything. Elec/shield is very popular due to the AoEs and it can be used as a farmer. Just because something is less talked about, it doesn't make it bad. The forums tend to have a number of min/maxers so that's why certain builds get talked about more than others. DB/elec isn't talked about much and yet I'm having fun on mine.
elec/shield has better damage output with Against all Odds and Shield Charge, invuln will make you far more durable though. elec/shiled is just a popular build, but it's by no means for everyone, i can see elec/invul being a pretty good choice, and hell, you'll be able to farm just fine with that, my elec/elec still comfortably farms at +2 x8

Electric/inv is excellent, you will like it, especially once the fitness pool is inherent to take some of the pain out of the low levels.
Inv loves a crowd, and electric has the shining glory of thunderstrike and lightning rod. Toss in a pool or patron power single target attack (I'm lookin' at Mu here) and you have a true monster on your hands. Tons of knockdown and end transfer, tons of AOE, even a decent ST chain if you pick up an extra ST attack, it's just glorious.
No, it won't do as much damage as a shielder. But with a decent build you will be much, MUCH tougher than a shield user, and shield is not a fragile set.
