It's all from a matter of perspective. For example:

Nocturnal A. Benefic total potency: 262.5 x 2 = 525
Diurnal A. Benefic total potency: 190 + 100 x 6 = 790

It would take 4 ticks of Diurnal Aspected Benefic's Regen in order to surpass Nocturnal's potency. I'm not sure if this effect even stacks with Collective Unconscious and Aspected Helios, but it takes roughly 12 seconds (Affected by spell speed) for the Diurnal version to surpass the Nocturnal version. On the flip side though, you are maximizing the effectiveness of your mana consumption for that one particular spell since a Nocturnal player may be more inclined to try to spam Nocturnal (which they shouldn't) and it's incredibly easy to use the Diurnal version of the spell effectively. Once again though, I'm only level 31 in the class and I have more of a tank's perspective on the class than a healer's.
