    Asylum/Medica2/Assize/Cure3/Benediction/Benison. All giving WHM huge sustain potential.
    The problem with that is you act like the other healers don't have equivalents. Perhaps better ones. Asylum? It's weaker than Whispering Dawn and Collective Unconscious. Medica 2? Ok, it's 6 potency stronger than Diurnal AH... but I really doubt 6 potency is a breakpoint. Benediction is great burst, but it's far too long to be sustain - sustain would be more like lustrate, which can be used 3x or 6x every 45 seconds.

    Cure 3 is nice, but very niche. It's only better than Star/Indom in situations where you need to spam is closely together. Which... pretty much amounts to 1 fight per 2 major patches.

    Lastly, I was talking about personal DPS. SCH is the highest, easily. Raid DPS is on top of that is just a bonus. AST is about the same now in terms of personal DPS, but it also brings raid DPS buffs on top of that. Stop looking at UWU and start looking at Sigmascape. If you don't think 4.4 is going to be a repeat of 3.4's treatment of WHM, then... I don't know what to tell you.

    All that being said, I still like the idea for thin air. Lillies not so much, but the thin air idea is nice.

    Have you ever played SCH before? Asylum is stronger than Whispering Dawn. THe only flexibility Whispering Dawn has is that it is an AoE instead of a field spell and that it doesn't cost a GCD or oGCD to cast. Asylum is stronger potency wise.
