I may not recommend it to a party with lower level gear, but if your party has Darklight and relic the healer whatever it maybe should be able to DoT and switch cleric on and off. On the last boss in AK I grab the adds and burn them in cleric on my whm so does my other friend without any problems allowing our main DDs to max dd the boss to burn it even faster.
I have tried to get the DPS to ignore the adds before (because the last one or two basically don't matter) or just have one DPS deal with the add while the other stays on the boss, but my groups in AK tended to have 1 or more undergeared members, so it just wasn't an option. Also, orbs are hard. What are lasers and how do they work? >.< But yes, outside of trash packs (and the first boss if DPS is slow once the summoner goes down), you can be in cleric stance for most of it with a geared group. Undergeared is another story, and generally makes the entire dungeon rather taxing. I do find it helps to sleep the gargoyles and the Hound Lights, however, as they have a distressing habit of pulling off the tank and seem to do an inordinate amount of damage (for what they are) to the tanks.

But yeah of course DDing as a SCH is overall less worry because of EOS/Selene. Then lustrate is just amazing. Also rumor has it if you pop a statues + pot and summon your pet even if the actual cool down of the pot disappears it will retain that extra stat increase. Anyone know if its 100% true or not?
I've never heard this, but I can ask a few mainspec Scholars I know to see what they say. I still can't get over how much easier it is to heal certain fights as SCH, tho. Lustrate is ridiculous, and so is being able to move and DPS freely on certain fights because the pet can cover most of the damage.
