Your story just doesn't add up. On the one hand you claim that you need the max mana for an 86 minute session, while also suggesting a break will occur well before 86 minutes. This means you don't need 86 minutes of max mana, you can do with less.
Literally unreadable.

Clearly you cannot rebut my argument.

You are suggesting 86 minutes of mana is preferable to 70 minutes of mana. But you also suggest the group will take a break instead of playing for 86 minutes straight.

You are going to break before you run out of mana, even with a lower mana pool.

I don't think I ever said anything about taking breaks earlier.

Using suboptimal clickies in fear of a break over an hour away is not good advice. Thank you.
You talked about breaks right there. If the group breaks earlier than 86 minutes, you didn't need the extra mana. If your group is going for like 4 hours straight, spending less mana means more time to play before a break.

I'll defer to Cecily saying the click actually does get used for burrowers. Figured a mana bar would outlast the burrower even brute-forcing the snare, barring some truly foul RNG luck, since you're basically shooting otherwise, but you'd know better than I do.

Very important to make the distinction between snare and ensnare in that case, too, because 3 mins is nothing on an iceburrower. Only Wuoshi shield makes sense to click.

Indeed. Using clickies I can group tank longer than 86 minutes straight on a smaller mana pool. This assumes no trains or emergencies of course. But ill be at high mana in those scenarios, as I am not spending much.

The reason I suspect you didn't use them is because how wildly magic resistant the worms are. It generally takes mins to land it and snare is only 3 min duration. I really like ensnare for them simply because it gives you a lil breathing room, but it's a pain in the ass to stick.
