How is spreading DoTs fun in a single target (boss) encounter that has no adds?

I was running a 4 man earlier as SCH and had to keep healing my Tank using a number of my GCDs, but the Tank was a DRK, not WAR, which probably makes a difference. I was using Soil, Whispering Dawn, and Excogitation every pull, and would pre-Adlo shield as they were running to the enemies. I used Biolysis on each enemy as the Tank was still running/gathering them all (if we just used it once then spread it, THEN it would be boring since I'd have literally nothing to press besides Ruin 2 until the Tank came to a stop). The Tank was taking enough damage I had to use other abilities like Aetherpact and Lustrate in a few cases.

I'm not sure what you describe is a healer problem so much as its a WAR problem, as I have done 4 mans with WAR where I pretty much never had to use any healing actions at all.

Though again, I have to ask about the DoTs. I'm curious how spreading a DoT then spamming Ruin 2 would be "fun", or the ability to spread a DoT in a single target fight would be fun.
