Even better, would be if the regen diminished over time. Let’s say the first tick was 200, the second is 150, and the third 100.
This would mean if you channelled, everyone within the bubble would have a 200 potency regen. As soon as you move, or they leave the bubble, the regen starts to drop off.

Next to that, you could match that party regen with a personal refresh. 200 MP regained per tick, dropping off to 150 and 100 after ending. So popping it for a second is 4.5% MP gain, and channelling it can give you up to 10% MP back.
No one is ever going to want to channel it unless they add a powerful DOT to it that overcomes the stupid decision of having us be rooted in place forever. Even if you don't care about dps, if things are bad enough you are considering channeling, they should be bad enough that you want to be more proactive and GCD heal instead.
