If you're runing around and can't dps you can also just burn your lilie stacks and it's equivalent to having a 225pot instant dps skill so long as you use misery.
I realise this, and I do think that lilies as a whole are working better than aetherflow at the moment. Still, it feels bad to use an afflatus heal when there is literally no healing needed (though thankfully this hasn't happened often. Since far fewer of WHM's abilities use lilies, I feel much more comfortable just disposing of lilies more or less as they're generated.)
