Dissipate overpowered?

[Rawrz]

I think that Dissipation is amazing as I've said, but if I could change one thing about it to increase its synergy with Aetherflow, I would increase ability potency (with Sacred Soil/Bane as the exceptions since they do not have a direct potency.) Yes, Free or Instant Resummon would be amazing, but thats just asking for too much for a skill that can save your party on demand in many cases. Increasing ability potency, but keeping the punishment, will give Scholars an edge with the skill, but won't overpower it or branch away from its original intention.

Dissipation:
Orders your pet away while granting you a full Aetherflow stack. Also increases healing magic potency by 20% for 30s (PvP 45s).
Summon or Summon II cannot be executed while under the effect of Dissipation.
Additional Affect: While under the effect of Dissipation select abilities have increased Potency by 20%.
Lustrate: 720
Indomitability: 480
Energy Drain: 180 (This will not affect MP recovered.)

I think this would make the skill shine for what its supposed to do.

As long as the list of cons are several times longer than the pros I can never but this ability in a good light there are a few places 'I gone oh hey perfect use for dissipate' outside of those handful of situations. Outside of those it's simply useless at best and possibly detriment in a worst cases if nothing else goes wrong (as a healer, being screwed over by your own cd is the best feeling ever).

As for changes I would mostly keep it as is but change the following from:

Orders your pet away while granting you a full Aetherflow stack. Also increases healing magic potency by 20%.
Summon or Summon II cannot be executed while under the effect of Dissipation.
Duration: 30s (PvP 45s)
to:

Orders your pet away while granting you a full Aetherflow stack. Also increases healing magic potency by 20%.
While under the effect of Dissipation, MP cost and cast time of Summon and Summon II reduced by 50%. Effect ends upon use of Summon or Summon II.
Duration: 30s (PvP 45s)

Accomplishes 3 things

- Reduces the ability's MP sink.
- Removes being locked-in the status for 30s.
- Makes not having SC available or not negligible.
