Torpor/canni4 > malo > the rest. I would not spend any money on the other spells until you’ve set aside and saved enough for those 3. At times I’d love to have the group buffs (stamina in particular). I’m ashamed to say I don’t have bane or pox yet but my shaman is a part time gig at best.
Edit: 55 pet is actually a fairly large upgrade and well worth it. It’s max hit may only be one higher but it’s 3 levels higher which helps a lot defensively and offensively; a lot more than the hit numbers would suggest. Additionally it has 15% more hp. I always think of my pet as a good sustained dot, a potentiall offtank/emergency tank; and reclaimable emergency mana pool. On all 3 fronts it is noticeably better than 49 pet. On xp trash max buffed 55 pet is about 10dps sustained higher than 49 ... mostly due to being 3 levels higher. 25 extra sustained dps from a pet helps a lot over time; about the equivalent of a permanent 150/tick dot rolling on stuff you’re killing (vs 49 pet being a ~90/tick dot.
