2. It's not a straight cut answer without knowing your gear. Before class trinket you had AP glyphed and aimed for 50% mana give or take up to 10% without any major DPS losses.
With class trinket you don't have AP glyphed and you burn until AP runs out or 50% if you didn't get there with AP up.
3. AM is your hardest hitting spell. Without class trinket you weave them with ABs to keep mana high then stop using them at 70%, only using if you get to 3 stacks.
With the class trinket and 4pc, you use all AMs before placing PC/AP to try and proc your pets, then use them as above with PC still up and once PC wears off you only use at 3 stacks.
4. If you know the boss is dying yes you can blow your mana regardless of CD's. What you don't want to do is miss time it and end up with hardly any mana and it's still alive.
5. <100%
