Pookies Is Not a Bear published an article today entitled Let’s Talk about Raid Buffs, Baby in which he details his evaluation of several elixirs and the Flask of Restoration using the Mana Regeneration Calculator to determine the net improvement afforded by each. It’s not only a useful comparison of raid consumables but a great step-by-step example of how you can perform these sorts of comparisons yourself. Thanks, Pookies!
And for a look at the use of long-lasting Wizard Oils, be sure to take a look at reader Mynd’s blog post on Optimization in which he compares the benefits of [Superior Wizard Oil] to [Golden Fish Sticks] (which thankfully stack).

Thanks for the shout out, Phaelia! Now I’m reeeeally hoping that my math is correct. XD
Thanks so much! I read your blog alot but first time commenting.
I have been wondering about which pots would be most effective this was very helpful.

Pots pots pots. Always with the pots. Understandable, I suppose. I’d suggest checking out some Superior Wizard Oils though. I’m not one to buff my own weblog entries, but this one is particularly useful for healers everywhere. Check it, and gimme some feedback.

@Pookies: I didn’t pore over it with a fine-toothed comb, but it looked right to me.
@Meghandra and Inwë: I’m glad Pookies’ analysis was as helpful to you as it was to me! And I’m happy to have you as a reader/commentor, Meg!
@Mynd: Oh, good point. I’ve edited the original post to include a link to your analysis of Wizard Oil, too, and will have to make a point of having some made for myself before tonight’s SSC run. Thank you!
Phae: No problem. I’ve made it my goal to try and make useful posts, to help out the community. I’d love to know whether it makes a noticeable impact on your healing or not.
(Btw, linking to my post made my site hits shoot through the roof. I nearly died when I saw it. You have a LOT of readers.)
@Mynd: You’re very welcome! Thanks for the information. And I am lucky to have so many readers. But it makes me feel guilty when I get too swamped with stuff (generally at work but lately much of it has been guild-related) to update!
