Concerning the clarity clicky items, I know that the wiki prices are not to be taken as word of law, but why are Clarifying Spores (Lore, 4 seconds casting time, dropped from Myconids) worth 500 pp and the Potion of Insight worth 50 pp (not Lore, instant cast, dropped from goblin cycle in FM)? Is it the 0.0 weight VS 1.0 weight?

Snaggles, what is this Sini you are talking about? The Midnight Mallet might be interesting, but it's kind of expensive to recharge.

The Stun Whips are indeed very good. I managed to solo the Searhorse Matriarch in KK with a max level pet with 2 stun whips, alternating between Shock of Swords and the 200 hp Heal, and switching to burning her down when she was close to 40% and was trying to complete heal. About killing the Royal Scribe, the Matriarch is level 47 with 4105 hp (according to the wiki), while the Scribe is level 49 with 7500 hp, and both hit for about the same. I wonder if the same strategy would work, but I doubt I could burn him down before he would CH. Without chaining stuns during the whole fight, just timing them when he spent 5 sec casting might work.

We are killing Dain tonight. If I win the head, I will need to work on my Tormax faction, so I would have a good reason to try the Royal Scribe :P
The other strategy I use on healing mobs is to cast Sirocco at around 45% of the mobs HP and then GCD cast Scars, it won't start casting Cheal until under 40% that way (it's dropping too fast) and often you can finish it before it finishes the cast.

A good mob to practice this on: is https://wiki.project1999.com/Shardwurm_matriarch

It's tricky to get the timing down and you need every wave of the rain to hit, but it does work!
