The shields are actually reliably stronger than the SCH's in my experience, that and the Aspected Benefic is instant-cast and far more potent than Diurnal's Aspected Benefic, and generates a shield equal to 130% of healing potency. Reliability vs hoping for a crit chance on your SCH. Though I do agree, double regen usually ends up in a silly amount of overhealing.
