Torpor is an endless supply of mana. the spells mana cost is low, its healing capacity is very high. A shaman with torpor can solo Ayllish in west wastes for example. without torpor it can't be done.
If you are lucky enough to win a torpor drop, you will make that money farming other stuff many times over. On blue, my shaman was 60 for over a year before i broke down and bought torpor. It was like I had a new, extremely OP Class. 3 years later I still kick myself for not having bought torpor the day I dinged 60.
What you read is correct, with torpor, shaman can solo kill mobs that enchanters dream about.
