When to cast Slows

[Troxx]

Unless it's a resistant set of mobs or real ass-beaters, I slow on incoming, often before the mob hits camp. Most all mobs are pansies once you slow em 70-75% and I don't mind taking a few hits.

At low levels unless solo/duo or maybe trio, slowing is not worth it. Mobs die to fast and your slow % isn't as large for the amount of mana it takes.

Bear in mind this is coming from the shaman perspective. We can take the hits a lot better than an ench can.
