Thanks you two for having the patience and words that I did not

Not to continue to derail this (tho it was answered like on page 1), healing a pet with 10k hps is easily mana neutral, without even slowing. Even without C2 the only mana drain was casting stun command on pet breaks and topping off the enchanter (I GCD Divine Light slot 1). When stuff is really sketchy like a large room lull-out, we pacify the pet and I hide around the corner. It’s an easy reset.
The ench is the star, other classes support them, a pure melee offers very little support and only drains cleric mana. It’s 1994 Chicago Bulls, there is only one Jordan.
In a normal group? Sure why not. Even a duo with a shaman or a cleric. Your only way to split is relying on root or cleric lull, but nothing “wrong” with a warrior or its aggro so long as you are realistic (or not comparing it to a 200dps torched and Tolan robe monster).
