    Yeah, but whats better,

    Not getting crit for 5000 dmg when the dreadnaught in turn 4 has eaten four spiders, or getting a crit heal for an extra 400 or w/e it is.

    I use awareness, but only when I know that getting crit dmg would be fatal.

    The correct answer is: "Every other of the many cooldowns a paladin has." Even if it didn't block heal crits awareness is already meh compared to everything else a PLD has at its disposal.

    Correct, but if EVERY cd I have is on CD from a rough spot or something going wrong, Im going to pop awareness so I don't get crit.

    In exchange of healing efficiency. It's a double-edged sword and the positive side isn't all that tempting on its own. If your party is in a rough spot that crit heal could potentially save your healer(s) a gcd to spend on someone else but RNG crits could go the other way. You're trading one gamble for another: if only RNG crit damage could kill you or if only RNG crit healing could save you. I don't really see it as worth it.
