Let's see...keep the tank rolling almost non-stop with no cleric buff, or have the tank roll for 10 minutes and need a med break with a cleric buff?

If you are even questioning inner fire vs. normal heals you must not have played a low level shaman.

but the tank doesn't need full health. Say you have a warrior with 400 HP. Some kind cleric gives him hero and Marzin. Now he has 1500 HP.

when he had 400 HP, your warrior zerked at 160 HP. With 1500, he zerks at 600hp, or more than he would normally have. So, you can keep him between 20 and 40% where he does more DPS than normal and is still safer than when he had 400 HP.
