    I suppose PIE does give some consistency with getting you somewhat more MP... But the least MP efficient healer feels to be SGE, and even with it MP is not really that big of an issue... Spell Speed or Crit would definitely be more useful.

    DET is one of those stats where you really can't go too wrong with getting more of it, as it just makes you do more damage and healing.

    I used to think that too. But then I saw a layout of how the numbers change based on how much of each stat you were running (wish I could track that down again) and unless they changed how it works, DET was one of the mostly useless stats there was. unless you are min/maxing the changes even with a fair amount of DET were... minimal at best. PIE at least gives you a bit faster regen per tick, DET required a massive amount just to add .0x of a percentage point of damage.

    so, for each 14 points of DET, you get a higher .001 added to your damage multiplyer, and I guess maybe the same amount for healing. doesnt seem all that useful really

    that's still more useful than piety. once you don't zero out in a fight, more piety adds absolutely nothing

    I suppose it depends on viewpoint, I find more regen better than .001 additions on to my healing or damage. especially if you are running with groups that require a lot of healing or rezzes.

    SGE will cry in MP if their party is stellar perfect in mech execution because there's probably nothing to spend their addergalls on outside throwing a Druochole at their tank even there's no need to, just to get that 700 MP.
