    MND is the primary stat for healers, but VIT and PIE scale better.
    You forget about the galvanize effect and your fairie, since this thread is about SCH end-game. That ~40 HP is actually ~80 HP (on a crit ~180 hp since the shield is doubled) half of which is never going to be over-healing (two-thirds on a crit) unless you're in the habit of over-writing your galvanize. And on top of that your fairie's heals are also bigger and can be cast in the same GCD as your Adloquium, so when you add up the amount of healing your can do in a single GCD the extra you get from that 30 MND is more than you think. It's not a huge amount, but it isn't insignificant either.
