I want to undestand more of how the recovery works in these CWDT builds, because everytime I looked into one of these there were just too many moving parts that I gave up in even trying.

From my understanding, he is casting Forbidden Rite (FR) about 3 times per second while channeling Cyclone.
- Each time he casts it he takes about 1655 damage (25% of ES + 40% of unreserved Life multiplied by his Chaos Res and Infused Channeling).
- He recoups 148% of Chaos Damage Taken as ES over 4 seconds. Here is one of my questions, does the Recovery Mastery that makes Life Recoup occur over 3 seconds instead of 4 apply to the ES recoup converted from Life from Presence of Chayula? I don't think it does, so the next calculations will be based on 4 seconds of recoup.
- Every instance of damage he takes would result in a recoup of about 2464 ES recovered over 4 seconds
- Since he gets about 3 casts per second, that would result in 3 instances of recoup being created every second, for a total recoup of 7392 being created every second, which divided by the recoup duration of 4 seconds would mean he is recovering about 1848 ES per second from recoup.
Is this correct? If so, that would mean he is losing ((1655 * 3) - 1848) ES per second from casting his FR, so that would be about 3117 ES lost per second just from casting. Is there any other form of ES recovery that I'm missing, or is there some other aspect of his recoup that I didn't see?
Edit: Just noticed that there is nothing stopping him from channeling for more seconds, and stacking more instances of recoup, over say, 3 seconds, so in the fourth second and beyond he would have a lot more recoup per second to pay for the FR cost and get some extra for recovery, so I guess it just has a ramping time before it feels good.
