Well, you're not the only one who thinks it's blown out of proportion. The only way this would seem possible would be if they were casting ascend and only ascend.

Ascend costs 2652mp off the top of my head. With a 8s cast time it can be translated into 331.5mp/s consumed. Benefic II is around 795 mp/gcd or 318 mp/s consumed. IF the astrologian would be chain raising and nothing else, it's actually plausible to an extend. But I think the time and resources would be better spend to prevent more deaths, rather than raising over and over
