The only time a JBB makes sense is mana free group dps (say a trio with another healer and melee), killing greens, if a fight won’t last the duration of Bane, or pre-torp. Those situations do happen but I sold mine long ago after the epic and torp.
Even most shorter fights or npc’s that don’t have insane hps or regen it doesn’t make sense to use Pox. You already are fully Malo-line debuffing for less resists on slow, epic, and bane resists. You might even be tash-sticking as well. Bane is efficient and works fast. It’s a lot of click-upkeep just to stay on top with canni so DR line is a lot of gems and timers to add to the mix.
I admit me not using pox is due to not fighting marathon mobs that need it. That aspect of the shaman is the “bane” of my existence.
