this clicky is not so much a hp/mana/ds buff as everyone thinks of it , but more of an upgrade to katta tsaph's urn from TBS. 1 expansion later they fine tuned the idea by changing it to mitigation instead of a 100% rune , and made the effect last long enough for it to not be needed to cast mid fight. and they added a real DS to it instead of just the spell ds like the urn. also removing the recharging thing was nice also.
the thing i hate about both this and the urn is the stacking issue .... what exactly is the point of using this clicky when it prevents you from using other hp/mana clickies... then mid fight when this wears off you are stuck with less hp/mana then you would have had if you simply used your regular clickies...they dont need to remove the mitigation effect and make this a permanent buff , they simply need to allow it to stack with everything. everything from hp/mana clickies to druids DS/spell DS clickies from tss/tbs.
this was the same problem with the urn , what the point of having a 2k rune when other runes are better, last longer, are chain castable, and so on.
the whole thought process for this style of clickies is nice , but for the amount of work required for obtaining these items, soe really needs to allow them to stack with everything , so that when they wear off your not left with less then you would have had if you didnt even have the damnable thing to begin with.
btw... no i cant spell, no i didnt reread this to make sure i spelled things correctly, and yes i love spelling ***** , flame on~
~~edit~~
one thing i do like about this tho , is that the mitigation effects DO stack with cleric/wizard mitigation lines , so it allows a tank to tank better at the start of a fight before slows get landed, and one thing that i cant figure out for the life of me .. is why does the ds NOT stack with mage DS but it does stack with druid ds ? /boggle and why does it not stack with the 50 all resist skull clicky pure arcanum , but it does stack with the individual resists ? someone at soe is slacking.
