It is far more efficient to use your mana to heal yourself than it is using it for dots or nukes
From 40-49 or so, I slow tanked with pet behind meleeing. 21% haste, Granite Face Grinder and biggest slow you've got. (Although I used Drowsy until Turgurs)

Can go on consistently without needing mana for DoTs. I used Drowsy because its only 20 mana cost and 25% slow, so super efficient.

Spectres were tough for me at 40, because they hit so hard. And they also stun / lifetap proc. At 40, I found great success with rogue / monk / warrior / ranger duos in places like Cazic Thule. City of Mist is also a good spot if you can get there during off-hours, specifically the stables. The mobs hit hard there, but a big slow should work well.
