You're right, I'm not getting pushed a lot, but it's more annoying than any stuns I see. I can go many fights without a single stun landing but I'm also one of the "AC is King" kind of players. My real point here is that too many people really oversell the importance of FSI at 60. It's probably a little more useful than an extra stack of food on a halfling as they eat more, but not quite as useful as Dwarf barrel roll. Somewhere in between.

I think the misconception here is you assume we are "overselling it". I have said it many times that no racial is necessary when you have Torpor.

I simply want to let people know which racial is best with Torpor if you care about min maxing. "Better" doesn't mean it is leagues ahead. It just means better.

Torpor just gives you too much regeneration for racial regeneration to matter much anymore. A Shaman with Fungi Staff, Fungi Tunic, and Torpor is Regenerating at 334 (Ogre) or 342 (Troll). The difference between the two is 2.3%. Getting 2.3% more HP per hour means saving 1.4 minutes on average per hour regenerating HP. This is assuming you are never at max HP, so the reality is less.

Before Torpor it is a 23% increase, which is pretty big when you are chain killing mobs for XP.
