    Thanks in advance and sorry for the wordy post.

    I have been told that when you cast hurricane (press and hold), your character will shoot until it's out of mana.
    If you have auto mp on your pet, then your pet will pot you one time only.

    After you've run out of mana the second time, you will cease to cast hurricane and your pet will not autopot again.

    I have tested this on my BM, and this seems to be true (in fact, the mana bar starts flashing gray after the first autopot).

    If the above understanding is correct, this means a BM with 30k mana and a pet with PE will cast hurricane for effectively 60k mana.

    If hurricane can run uninterrupted for the entire 60k mana duration, does it cease dealing damage at some point? The same way how if a night lord stands still and spams triple throw, they will eventually stop hitting?

    Sorry just to confirm, when you say Nope, do you mean the hurricane will continue to deal damage for the entire 60k mana pool? Thanks!

    That's right. Hurricane is treated as 1 single attack for the whole duration, unlike NL and others where each throw counts as 1 attack.

    Thanks for quoting this @Inusama ! Really useful I've decided to stop mp washing once I've reached 30/11.5 instead of my initial wish to do 30/15.

    I'm pretty sure that's caused by your natural MP regen giving you enough of a tick from 0 MP to hit the 9 MP needed for one shot of Hurricane, triggering your pets autopot again.
