canni dancing is 100% not required to play shaman

It's required to play with maximum efficiency, most especially before Torpor.

I liked my shaman but canni as a mechanic fucking sucks and pretty much single handedly made me never want to play a shaman again. It should have been a lich form type thing

A single huge HP/MP conversion with a significant recharge time or placing that effect over 4 ticks is the way to do it. It gets so tiresome to hear the sound of the spell so much.

Nothing you're going to be doing before Torpor requires playing at max efficiency.

You're just a dumb dumb "on paper" tryhard. Next.

Yes it does. You will not be able to keep the maximum number of spawns camped without full mana efficiency, whether that means solo or in terms of what a group will be able to do depending on your mana. And during certain chaotic pulls, having the mana for an extra heal or not can mean the difference between life and death.

It's not "required" by anyone for any class to play the best, people can go at their own pace, but it's always a difference in the power ceiling a character will have. I like to maximize my efficiency, it often feels bad to do less. It also feels bad to canni dance constantly, or just to spam canni in general. A lose-lose scenario for playing a Shaman, but there are countless things in the game that can be designed better.
