I used AutoHotKey to spam the spell for so long.

That def fits in better with observed values.

I don't think anyone disagrees with that and no one is arguing to only look at HEP values and ignore the situation. The purpose of this thread to to find out how much HPS a item will give or how much mana will be returned over a fight with a given setup etc. As for the variables you listed they aren't too complicated to be taken into account you can TC values for that as well.
