Even with the numerous nerfs they've done to Embrace they still need to lower its potency even more. Let's also not forget the fact that Eos is still a heal machine with Whispering Wind and Fey Illumination available, one of which is basically a free Healing Increase Buff for high raid damage.
Whispering Dawn and Cov are strong but Fey Illum is kinda whatever since it doesn't affect oGCDs and thats all you really use. Not to mention running Selene with an AST is meta and the loss of Whispering Dawn and Cov feels nonexistent.

They should just get rid of Embrace and make Fey Union the only source of single target healing the fairy can do. Either that or make Embrace cost some type of resource like MP or nerf it to the ground making it heal for 100 potency (around 2k HP at current value) instead of it healing for 5k at current HP values and reaching even higher values (7-8k) under Rouse.

If they add a 100-200 MP cost to Embrace they could get rid of the auto heal function of it giving the job a higher skill ceiling as 100-200 MP is a lot in the current MP economy so you'd have to pick and choose where you would want to heal.
