Same with Whispering Dawn, it says it's 100 potency, but in actuality it's 76.8.

SE seems to have outright copied Whispering Dawn onto Sage without accounting for this, so the Sage version is strictly better by a lot. And Cardia's healing is approaching double the amount of healing that Embrace gives if we only look at it in terms of tick for tick. Once you consider that Cardia procs on 1.5 second cast spells and some oGCDs though, and Embrace is once every 3 seconds, even saying that it's double the potency would be an under-exaggeration.

The only possibly justification is that Sage has to target their healing whereas Eos just heals whoever she feels like healing, but I'm sure a lot of people would argue that makes it even better yet. You used to be able to manually Embrace people, and it was removed. It's one of the things Scholars have been asking for the return of for a long time.
