I played a lvl 60 shaman in early Kunark back in the day. I was in a raiding guld and was lucky enough to get an early copy of Torpor.

Its been 20 years but from what I remember the 200 mana cost is most likely correct, but it would also drain all your remaining mana.(for the caster). Meaning you needed 200 mana to be able to cast it, but it would cost all your mana you had left.

It didnt make any sense actually giving shamans such a hugely powerful heal, considering shamans and druids had had the same level of heals up to that point.

Therefor I believe Torpor was first meant as a situational last ditch full heal, that they later changed due to its potential making it so popular to shamans they removed the mana-drain.
