Agreed, on a long enough time period it isn't a problem, like the specific example you gave. But sometimes being able to get more mana back in a short period is important too, like if you are low on mana for whatever reason.

You still didn't address the "300 mana surplus" mistake you made here https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...&postcount=430 , which is a pretty big mistake.

Quote:
- 2x Envenomed Bolt (2665 Damage) + 1x Plague (1270 Damage) + Hasted and Regened Pet (17 DPS) = ~37.2 DPS when factoring in DoTs will not be active for the full fight
- 1426 HP recovered from Sitting Regen (16 HP) + Fungi Tunic (15 HP) + Regrowth (15 HP) over 31 ticks
- 651 Mana recovered from Sitting Regen (21 Mana) over 31 ticks
- 640 Mana spent on 2x Envenomed Bolts
- 300 Mana spent on 1x Plague
- 175 Mana spent on 1x Togor's Insects
- 30 Mana spent on 1x Root
- 100 Mana and 30 HP spent due to losing 5 Sitting Regen ticks while casting the 5 spells above
- 69 Mana spent on overhead from casting Regen on Pet 4x per hour
- 485 damage taken to pet (1880 damage - 1395 regenerated from 45 HP a tick)
- 175 Mana spent on Chloroblast for pet to counter 385 damage above. Pet is at -100 HP after the fight.

Total HP Gained: 1396
Total Mana Spent: 838
Total Fight Time: 188 seconds
This is the actual mana spent per fight, and you would be at -84 HP and -18 mana assuming you used Cannibalize 4. Your pet would be at -100 HP too after Chloroblast.

https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...&postcount=476 - This shows the JBB Shaman spending 188 seconds per fight as well.

Either you add 6 seconds to the recovery time on the DoT Shaman, making it 196 seconds for the DoTing Shaman vs. 188 seconds for the JBB Shaman, or you allow the JBB Shaman to pull 1 tick earlier by conceding that it is fine to pull while not at 100% HP/Mana, and then it is 188 seconds for the DoTing Shaman vs. 182 seconds for the JBB Shaman.

Troxx is still wrong, JBB is indeed a more efficient leveling tool from 45-60 when compared to root rotting without Epic, even when comparing an Ogre to an Iksar.
