So why should i screw myself in that department when other classes are still going to cause downtime? iI barely have 1890 hps but have 4200 mana unbuffed. I just dont understand if I RARELY have problems with mana why i am on CRACK. Have you ever thought that maybe a good balance of STA and SPI might be better than purely STA? you can only heal so much as a warlock, so how does the extra HP help you past a point of diminishing return before you need assistance of a healer in group wasting THEIR mana to help you regen?(massive run-on for a point) Personally i do not think my toon has the perfect balance yet but it works. Fine tuning will come.

BTW does anyone have a formula for the way regen is calculated from SPI during battle? Is it different than non-battle times? If not I would still like to see a formula that seems to work.
So what happens when you get an add in an area where fearing would cause other adds to aggro?
