Do you
A) die
B) die
C) Change time and space so that you can some how change your spells around in a way that doesn't affect your efficiency and you don't run OOM from overlapping spells too soon.
D) Cast either far enough in advance to land the spell right before the bash, or start cast right after the bash. You have a 6 second window in which you can land your torpor and have 0 waste. The only problem then is if the bash timer lines up exactly with the start of this 6 second window (or up to 1.5 seconds before the window starts). This situation can be avoided if you use your brain. Hint: Think about the pattern of bashes with a 32 second bash cycle and 24 second torpor cycle. Another hint: You can't control the server's timing on torpor ticks, but you can control when the bash cycle starts.
