While I don't feel its really effective anymore in Heavenward content, I do still use it all the time out of habit. I also use it as an indicator sometimes. If I notice the buff drop on the party list, its my que to pay attention because someone else has agro with damage incoming. So while I'm stance dancing in and out of clerics if I see the buff drop I stay alert for heals. And yes, I'm in the habit of swiftcast/ss2 after each pull. :3
