So surely using just one Holy spell, then Confiteor, would be a DPS gain even with dropping Req, so long as you're not forced to move?

Holy Spirit: 350 +175
Holy Spirit: 350 +175
Holy Spirit: 350
Holy Spirit: 350
Confiteor: 800

vs.

Holy Spirit: 350 +175
Confiteor: 800 +400
Holy Spirit: 350
Holy Spirit: 350
Holy Spirit: 350

It's just those last 3 Holy's aren't instant anymore.
The buff only activates if you meet the MP requirements, but once it's up, it's up for the entire duration.
