Shaman: Lets put this Stun vs Regen thing to rest

The main problem that I see with you regen analysis is that the standing rate is 12 not 18 and hat means the bonus is 8. All the rest of the regen (regrowth/fungi) can be had without being troll/iksar, so we are really talking about FSI vs. 8hp standing regen bonus or 11hp sitting regen bonus.

8hp/tick is 72hp or roughly one extra CanniIV every 2 minutes for an increased mana regen of 4.1/tick. That translates to an extra torpor every 5 minutes, or an extra slow every 8.5 minutes. The extra torpor translates to an extra 665 - 831 mana over the same period. That translates to an additional 13.6 - 17 mana per tick. Assuming you are able to burn mana and canni enough to take advantage of that, it's pretty damn good. Better than I'd have thought ^^

Great catch, thank you. I appreciate it!

However, do you think its still worth it though in comparison? We are simply talking 8 hp regen, and you'd have to be canni/taking damage/not full health the entire time to get its full benefit.
Being able to recast instantly on bash interrupt isn't too bad, and keeps you from being stun locked on multiple mobs.

However, do many shaman at 60 even tank multiple mobs unslowed without dying anyway?
