    @Miscreant,

    Maybe I am mistaken but the airy if you use it, has a Healing power increase of 40 % + your own. If you remove it to gain yourself 20 % you kind of *lose* 20 % effectiveness of potential Healing, on top of it, you need to resumon your fairy, either by using swift cast + call fairy, or by stop walking call your fairy with the risk of being one shotted. If you use swift cast + call fairy you spend mana + an important skill that shoudl be used for things far more important then that.

    But maybe I have a biaised perception of it...just I wont use that skill again. This is the beauty of this game, different people use different ways to finally achieve same goal if let to do it

Thats the type of situation that Dissipation can be used for healing, it's very niche.

    But I prefer to use it for DPS, I will blow up/absorb my pet in parts of the fight where my fairies healing isn't needed and use those Aetherflow stacks for Energy Drains, I usually blow up/absorb Selene early on and switch to Eos in progression making sure I pop Fey Wind before Dissipation, it's a boost to my DPS and in situations like A1 Savage where you want to do as much damage as possible before the second Oppressor comes it can help, if every Energy Drain hits, you have just added an extra 450 potency of attacks and replenished your mana.

    Broil + non weaved energy drain + Broil is always going to be superior than Ruin II + weaved energy drain + Broil.
    I'm not saying I always do Ruin II + Energy Drain, I do do Broil + Energy Drain too, but its situational, got one Aetherflow stack left and a new Aetherflow to be popped, a Ruin II is better as I can get off the Energy Drain and Aetherflow before my next GCD starts, same with a Ruin II + Enery Drain + Swifcast.

    Maybe I worded it badly but that is basically what I'm trying to say
