Although I haven’t played much in the beta, when I did try those mushrooms out- I wasn’t impressed. Even when I tried to play the boomkin spec, I hated using mushrooms because of how clumsy I felt whenever I cast those. Three gcds? I wonder if there’s another class that has a spell that costs 3 gcds to get the full effect. Probably not.

As a restoration Druid, I also have my doubts I’ll really be using these mushrooms, especially if I’m on the run or actively trying to heal. I might use it in my down time but that would be about it for me. I really think the spell should be changed, and make it so that you can cast three mushrooms in one click or something like that. 3 gcds is just too much, IMO.

All in all, it’s to be expected that mana will be tight at the start of Mists. I’m glad it won’t be as bad as it was at the start of Cata, but still, people should expect that. Also, as people get used to encounters at level 90, it will get easier. I’m looking forward to it!
