Fine the duration or cooldown of your spells.

Multiply your clicks per second by the duration/cooldown until you want it to recast.

For a DoT or HoT effect, you want it to run its course, even though you can recast it earlier.
I will generally use reset=target for these.
So if I change targets, the new target gets the cast immediately.

For things with a cooldown, I use reset=combat.
I don't want my Lava Burst to attempt to cast but be on cooldown, even if I change targets.

I reset Recount before some of the boss fights in Gundrak yesterday, and I was much happier with the numbers I was seeing. I think my elemental shamans were around 3.4k DPS, or so. And that seems a lot more realistic, since I'm dropping bosses pretty fast.

I came very close to less-rabi, but I always seem to fail the interrupt that's around 20%.
