Depending on the fight full cycling CL isn't always achievable, even with a spriest. Not to mention aggro may become a problem at the beginning of the fight. Without EF, thats ~724 mana (i think right?) every 6 seconds. Thats 7240 mana in a minute...on top of 600 or so every 6 seconds from LB alone. So like 10K+ mana in one minute. My math is a little off here...but I think you can understand my point.
I would suggest waiting until you can sit comfortably at your mana and when the boss is at ~%40ish if you want to start a 3xLB/CL cycle. Personally I'll CL cycle at this 40% mark if I have at least 70% mana left. I personally find myself throwing chain-heals when I have a spriest as I see this is more beneficial to the raid, since (imo) chain heal is one of the best heals in the game and very raid saving in certain situations.
Shocking, IMO, is useless unless you're looking to get more on the DM meters in 5-10mans. Shocks in general are terribly inefficient and I wouldn't ever suggest using them in 25-man raids...except where you are supposed to (i.e. mag) and even then I use rank1.
