I suppose for solo/questing it's not the best but I can definitly see the advantage for instances and soloing elites.

How about Bloodworms? They seem to proc fairly often, and give a somewhat respectable amount of damage and healing to me.

For solo grinding/leveling, your rotation or RP usage doesn't particularly matter. I usually kill things before I have any opportunity to use RP, so I just refresh Unholy Blight or burn Gargoyle if I want to chain pull mobs.

For Blood leveling, DRW is a nice dump for burning down elites or group. Otherwise, I wouldn't be too concerned about RP usage. Most of the comments in various threads about the importance of RP are referring to boss fight dps, not questing.

Bloodworms are really nice for leveling. In raids, they can prove a detriment, and many have argued there are better uses of your points, which I agree with.
