Stoneskin

[Cynfael]

I keep seeing tanks recasting stoneskin while in combat. Should I be doing this too? I do it at the start of a boss fight. When I've used DF to do the primal fights, only a couple other healers do this though so I was thinking it wasn't necessary.

I know doing it in downtime can't hurt, per say, but being a new WHM I'm having a bit of trouble with mana atm so I prefer to let my mana regen rather than casting another spell that'll be gone in a moment.

Some tanks will do this if they are holding enmity just fine and aren't getting it from WHM before a tank buster. Generally they should just keep whacking whatever they're whacking, though.
