Bye, Bye Regen Challenges

December 23, 2008 :: Posted by - Stompalina :: Category - Raiding

The largest challenge since dinging 80 and joining in the already well progressed raiding has been mana regeneration. Considering most Heroic Naxxramas boss encounters (and sometimes trash), last onwards of 10-minutes, I first found myself innervating and potting very early. Through hooking up some Leatherworking craftables and a few Heroic instance drops I was lucky enough to get my spirit and MP5 up to somewhere sustainable.

Then, I hit the spirit jackpot. Within two days I landed the Majestic Dragon Figureine and then the Spirit-World Glass. Both are specifically spirit trinkets, which with the first’s on-use, and the second’s 10x stack bonus, puts my spirit over 1200. In turn, my mana regeneration after the 5-second rule is averaging 1100 per second.

Both of these trinkets are BOP drops from 25-main raid instances that I highly recommend both for any resto druid with initial raid healing mana challenges. Passing on other things in the off-chance that it would increase your odds of getting these would certainly be worth it to some degree. Damn loot rules…
So, while casting, rolling hots on tanks, and as-needed raid wide, my initial mana regeneration challenges are nearly non-existent at this point. All of this while I still have not completed the Superior armor achievement. Now that I can sustain mana through an extended encounter, focusing more attention on upping spell power is a priority.

I hope your blue bar is filling as plentifully as mine!

Happy Regening!~
