Not to derail or hijack away from the melee parse, but shouldn't Bane wizards be crushing these numbers?

High end wizards already have mana pools 3600+. Bane costs 450 mana. 3600/450 = 8 Bane casts, for 16,000 damage. Which they could dump in 88 seconds, without GCD. 359 second fight, with Clarity 2, Brilliance, Protection of the Glade, Barrier of Force, you'd regen ~1357 mana, for 3 more casts, total of 22K.

This isn't counting Velious gear, flowing thought, specialization mana preservation, bard songs, mod rods, mana robes, death cycling for mana... I know AE dodging and other "real" variables would affect this (I prolly goofed the math somewhere), but won't tanks just Mallet/Prayer for agro and allow wizards to full burn almost instantly?

I'd be curious to see wizard parse numbers, if anyone has them. Magician and necromancer pets would be interesting as well, as on live they had extremely high attack values.
