The change was sorely needed and I'm glad it's finally happened, but let's not put lipstick on a pig.
Provided that you can get off Misery before the boss dies:
- Lilies are now dps neutral by nature
- they are dps gain over Glare spam if Misery is used under any raid buff and/ or pot while the Lilies were used outside those windows
- they are a signifcant dps gain if a boss has downtime
- they allow for lower (or even no) Piety builds as using them saves MP while being dps neutral
The 3rd one was already the case before but it's a bigger dps gain now while also being lower risk as you generate them faster.
It doesn't solve the lack of downtime options all healers suffer from but credit where credit is due. Overall the Lily & Misery change is a noticeable buff for WHM's free healing while also being a slight dps buff. It also makes WHM/ SCH comps more viable. Is it enough to be on par with the other 3 healers in terms of dps? No. But it brings it closer to them, at least.

Hopefully more changes are coming, they did listen to the feedback and made 2 major changes that affected dps neutral healing, dps itself and MP.
