Is it even remotely efficient to cannibalize (canni 2) multiple times then cast Superior Heal to get health back?

Let me check..

Mana 0
Canni II
1 : Decrease Hitpoints by 67
2 : Increase Mana by 30 (L39) to 36 (L60)

Mana 150
Greater Heal
Mends major wounds, healing between 244 and 270 hit points. 1.8 HP/mana; 45 HP/sec.


So..

150/36 = 4.16 casts of canni equals a greater heal
causes 268 damage for 4 casts, giving 144 mana


or 335 damage at 180


average of course being
279 for 150


So it barely breaks positive of 9 hp for the mana cost average, for a lot of wasted time that you would have gotten more mana just sitting for that time.

Answer is no.
