jboots are an instaclick buff. damn near every boss dispells. tons of actual mobs dispell. they only work in outdoor zones but Hate, Fear, and all kunark dragons + most epic fights except trak are outdoors.

When was the last time you were on a raid with zero druids, shaman, rangers, bards? When was the last time you needed a run speed buff AFTER being dispelled by these mobs? These targets, once engaged drop really fast

you don't have to grab a new set of jboots out of your bag to click it every time your jboots run out.

Very true, but does not make them a must, just convenient. There is a difference.

I can't imagine how many potions i'd go through in a 10-12 hour sky raid between timers wearing off and deaths.

Again, when was the last time you were on a raid with zero druids or rangers? I'm pretty sure the druids and rangers have plenty of time and mana to sow you on a raid. That being said my guess is you would use your potion zero times.

i would hate myself in the face thinking about spending cash every single time i had to click my jboots, luckily i don't.

The OP already did the math. Most of your examples of clicking j-boots are times when you actually had sow available which is superior run speed by 20%

jboots are an absolutely essential piece of equipment 45+, especially if you're raiding. sorry.

Completely disagree 100%. If you were going to say anything at all about being solo then you might have a leg to stand on but your examples actually do more to prove that j-boots are not essential on raids.
I never had j-boots on live or on this server and I have never died on a raid due to not having them.
