    Not saying Synastry is bad in any way, it's actually really good since you can single target heal others while still healing the targeted Synastry buddy with single casts. However, unless I'm mistaken, Synastry doesn't affect the potency of HoT ticks nor does it affect the potency of Helios and Aspected Helios.

    Divine Seal is just overall better despite having a shorter duration due to it not being locked to a single target, and DS also affects WHM's AoE heals and HoT ticks on top of boosting the heals for everything else that's not Benediction (actually I'm not sure if it affects Tetragrammaton, Assize, or Asylum though. Haven't really tested that out).

    Though I think you could argue Synastry is better overall if talking amount healed on a single target. I just quickly did the maths in my head, so yeah. May not be accurate (someone please correct me if I'm wrong on anything in this post). For party wide healing, however, DS definitely beats Synastry.

    You would be wrong. Synastry merely acts as a less potent Divine Seal with the simultaneous heal perk. Aspected Helios and Benefic (under Diurnal) both have increased HoT potency, and ALL spells that have frontal heals have increased potency.

    Synastry provides both a Synastry buff on user/target (so you can't dilate it but can extend it with CO if both you and target are hit) and a 20% healing potency increase buff on self. The Synastry buff only works with direct single target healing on anyone other than the Synastry target (healing yourself transfers 40% of the heal too). Healing potency buff affects all spells and their components.
