Yeah, our regen is really quite insane now. Something like 400mp5 while casting... As someone else said in the thread, if clearcasting procs, and you strap inner focus on the end of that (or the Gruul trinket proc, which is still awesome), you are looking at over 1000mp5 outside of casting.
The priests actually had an spriest on our kill, but I was #2 on healing, and didn't really go below 70% mana for the entire fight. I used 1 potion, 1 shadowfiend...
So I am just making an educated guess (and from the 'oom' calls on voice coms from the shaman/paladins) that the priests probably shouldn't get an spriest.
Although, having said that, we only had spriest for 2 mages + 1 destro lock, and still hit the DPS requirement by some margin, so it might be better safe than sorry to keep the spriest with more healers.
