    What I like about your suggestion is it attempts to remove (or at least mitigate) the penalty while adding a new dimension to the SCH playstyle. As you note yourself, balance is the first concern that comes to mind, as your suggestion may be approaching OP territory, at least in certain ways. I'm assuming that in your new suggestion, we'd be eliminating the existing potency buff and replace it with the buff corresponding with the fairy that you sacrifice (otherwise, that would just be bananas). But in any event, your Eos buff essentially equates with the current buff, but without losing Embrace and potentially extending the buff to abilities. This is probably OP, bc a healing buff AND free aetherflow stacks is...a lot. But when you think about it, if the only cost to you is switching to the other fairy, then free stacks on top of a buff is, in all likelihood, going to be too powerful, unless you get only 1 free stack and a smaller (e.g., maybe 10% healing buff). More to come.

    So I think there are a number of options to play with, depending on what you think Dissipation should actually accomplish. If you want it to be an emergency healing tool (which is what it's *supposed* to be), then extra aetherflow is definitely the way to go. But if you think about it, 3 stacks of aetherflow is....all we'd really want in an emergency CD. So to make it add an interesting new dimension without being too OP, I think 1 Aetherflow stack + fairy buff would be appropriate. Then you could get maybe a 20% healing boost from Eos and it wouldn't be OP. As for Selene's buff, let's consider another possible purpose for Dissipation: honestly, what it often gets used for currently is a DPS boost, so maybe Selene could give you a Spell speed boost to strengthen your DoTs (or something).
