Ogre FSI is quite useful at level 60. The most dangerous part of a fight is the pre-slow phase (first minute or two). FSI can be the difference between a slow going off and you needing to gate.
Troll/Iksar regen is basically worthless over a fight where the mob is slowed and you have Torpor. There is a reason why you don't see Torpor Shaman's wearing a Fungi, which is better than Troll/Iksar Regen.
A standing Troll/Iksar gets 1 free Torpor every 15 minutes, assuming they aren't at full health. The problem is any Torpor Shaman is going to be at full health out of combat, due to Torpor hehe.
EDIT: You are also incorrect about bash automatically interrupting spells. The stun interrupts the spell, not the bash.

1. Point one is often too situational to be relied on. All hard solo mobs have been done by every race. If this was a huge factor, we'd see differences in success rate among races. We don't, so we know it's not a huge issue.
2. Mana fuels torpor, health fuels mana. Regen in long fights not only makes your extended dps go up more, it also opens you up to kill things faster. Active shaman can benefit more from using canni/torpor rotations because their active regen contributes massively the longer a fight goes on. The regen is useless once you get torpor argument is a false claim.
3. Bash does have a chance to interrupt the spell. Not only am I right, I challenge you to go test it.
FSI is nothing more than a meme who needs narrow situational crutches to put it on par with Regen or Regen + AC
Nevermind grouping as having a tank will make FSI completely and utterly useless.
It's a no brainer, Min/Max is Regen through and through.
We're also not even including higher level mobs which have a higher chance to kick versus bash as well. Yeah, the more things you consider, the more you realize that beyond the surface level, Ogres are really only good for one thing - stats, a lot of front loaded stats.
