    WHM BIS 4.05

    Hey guys. New patch, new items. What do you think WHMs BIS should be in this patch? This is what I came up with:
    1. http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/11GG2
    2. http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/11GD9
    The first one is, in my opinion, balanced - crit, det and sps. Since crit was nerfed, I did the second build, but there is just too much piety and sps...So I want your opinions on this matter as I dont really want to waste too much time on getting wrong/less usefull gear pieces. Thank you.

    Healers in general have a lot of wiggle room with our melds.

    It really depends on how you heal.

    Crit for me is always a no brainer but after that I value Spell Speed above all else.

    I've had the best results with Det SpS on WHM. I'm trying AST now, and Det Crit is looking really good.

    Trying to go for as little PIE as possible, priority Det > Crit > SS

    I think belt should be creation regardless of whether you prefer Det or Crit since it can have both with a Det meld. The numbers say so as well.

    Or this for crafted gears added. I'm using WHM's stat weights though so Crit slightly > Det > SS. http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/11JWK

    I'm probably an outlier, but I do a ton of dpsing in my static, so I'm thinking of going with this build:
    http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/11VP5
    Basically I'm prioritizing DET>DH>CRIT>SPS>PIE

    I know DH doesn't affect my heals, but it's the most potent dps stat by far at the moment and I find crit to be pretty useless for heals anyway since it mostly just creates overheal. SPS effects hots/dots but not direct damage/heals since it's not going to reduce your gcd enough to actually get in extra casts between major mechanics. Since my highest total damage in a fight comes from Stone IV I'm not really satisfied with that either. WHM has insane mana regeneration now, so minimizing PIE is a top priority.

    If the healing requirements in v3s & v4s are high enough I may decide to go with crit or sps over dh, but at least in v1s and v2s I don't think it would be worth it.

    I really don't know which one to choose.
    At the beginning, I wanted to go for a Crit/Det, but now with what I read for Crit, I'm wondering if I shouldn't go for Det/SpS...

    meeh...

    How much dps can you do with all that direct hit?

    I feel like I'm one of the few people that went SS/Det. On a dumby I do about 2500 dps and in boss fights I do about 14k-1k dps depending on how much damage we're taking.

    Hps in o4s is spiky because of white wind. In a few weeks once item levels rise it won't be so bad, but I still don't agree with a healer going direct hit. Crit is still great for sch and noct ast, with det for the rest imo
