Last night I was finally able to get in some quality time with the PTR for patch 2.3, and picked up the new ritual of refreshment spell for my mage. That's a screenshot of the dispenser at left; a soulwell-like table which you can summon to dispense food and water to your raid. It cost me 10g 80s to learn, and is available to mages at level 70. Here's the spell text:
"Begins a ritual that creates a refreshment table. Raid members can click the table to acquire Conjured Manna Biscuits. The tables last for 2 min or 50 charges. Requires the caster and 2 additional party members to complete the ritual. In order to participate, all players must right-click the refreshment portal and not move until the ritual is complete."
I'm pretty pleased with this idea, even if the table does look a little silly. One rune of portals is an easy, cheap trade-off for five minutes of conjuring, evocating, conjuring, drinking, and conjuring more raid water. Plus, unlike with soulwell, ritual of refreshment actually has more charges than there are raid members. So even if you only have one mage in a 25-man, everyone gets two stacks of tasty, tasty manna biscuits.

I haven't been able to get my mage transferred on the PTR's yet. So, there's a reagent cost of 1 Rune of Portals? That's just stupid. Oh well.
It does seem kind of silly, but I guess I'd rather have that than be a warlock rationing out soul shards.
Would be nice if the runes stacked to 20 instead of 10 though.
Hmm.. I heard the runes did stack to 20 in this patch. /shrug
*logs back into the test server*
Leiandra, you're absolutely right. I did not know that.
Also, apparently the icon for aquadynamic fish attractors is a picture of a glowing holiday ham. Go figure.
So, do I get a cookie?
No, but you can have a croissant.
Oh wow, that's a clever idea. This new patch is looking more and more exciting...
Yeah, having tried it out on test, I'm getting less and less patient conjuring water for raids.
