Sometimes our shadow priests ask for Innervates, and they sometimes get them if healers are okay for mana. Theory-wise it seems justified, because shadow priests with mana generate mana for the rest of the party while OOM shadow priests don't.
I think the regen changes will affect how classes are allocated to shadow priest groups, with priority being given to paladins, shaman and DPS classes except for particular intensive fights.
Current fights where I would want a shadow priest: Warlord Naj'entus, Gurtogg Bloodboil, Illidan (only really for Flames of Azzinoth and the Demon Phases), Kalecgos.
I do everything I can to try to avoid asking for Innervates - in my experience when I really need one it's never available. Most of my innervates have come after getting battle rezzes. With the new regen model, I think the typical Innervate would probably fill my mana pool several times over with the cap being the size of your mana pool in the first place. Makes me wonder whether the class with the largest mana pool would benefit the most from Innervate.
