Outside of the 5 mans for leveling (which don't really require chaining poting) I don't see a lot of the current content being run anymore once the expansion drops. You don't see too many MC or BWL runs outside of nostalgia purposes currently and though I do expect some Retro runs of the old instances I'd like to think (hope) that once we're all 80 we won't need to chain pot them anymore. Either way, I'm not a huge fan of this change. Edit: I just checked out your Blog and noticed you're a Coldfusion developer. Awesome! Me too :) I’m pretty much in agreement with you, although I’m not too concerned about current encounters.

Sure, future encounters will be tuned to not require more potions, but what about current encounters? They're making most all current raids impossible. In a long, healer intensive fight, the healbots will just run out of mana. So unless they change the regen mechanics, potions every 2 minutes is needed. Maybe the debuff will get a two minute cooldown, but only be applied when you're in combat, and wear off as soon as you drop combat. This’ll stink!
