Do that again, but with a Druid this time. <3 lol
It's a good item. Chloro + SLN + sitting = 15 hp per tick = 1 stone every 4 ticks = 5 mana per tick. It's about 2 mana per tick at 34 with just Regen.

You can also "preload" those ticks of mana, stoning down to about half hp and letting it regen up while you med. Shortens med times significantly.

But the main draw of a manastone to a quadding druid is how it extends your mana pool. If you don't have a manastone at 34, you cannot quad spectres without a lot of medding during the kite. You'll simply run out of mana. With a MS at 34 it's doable but difficult if you have less than 200 wis. MS allows you to make quad pulls without having FM if you rely on the stone to push your mana pool up for the last few nukes. I run around 1200 hp which gives me up to 400 extra mana in my pool for quads. But HP converts to max mana for druids with a MS, while for clerics it converts to mana regen. Mana regen trumps a bigger mana pool every time.

Clerics CH changes the use of manastone entirely, but druids make good use of it.
