Question about eukrasian prognosis

[Eramine]

The upgrade to eukrasian prognosis 2 drew my attention to it, even at it's unupgraded form the potency of eukrasian prognosis' shield is way bigger than eukrasian diagnosis. What point is using eukrasian diagnosis when eukrasian prognosis supposedly gives a bigger shield for the same mp cost, and to every party member, if the 360% compared to the 180% is to be believed.

E. Diag has a base potency of 300. 180% of 300 is effectively a 540 potency barrier, and critical heals provide a second barrier also equal to 180% of the healing received on top of the extra healing from the crit.

E. Prog only has a base potency of 100%, so the 360% is effectively 360 potency on the party and has no additional value from crits (besides the benefit of the initial healing).

In either case, these are two of your absolute last resorts when it comes to healing anyway since you really should be trying to use Addersgall heals, which are more than often enough on their own, let alone other very powerful cooldowns like Physis II and Holos. But if you're absolutely pushed for resources or in a pinch, E. Diag would make more sense if there's a lot of pressure on one person, though E. Prog is still generally what you'd use before that since single target focus is so uncommon outside of the tank who's often more than capable of enduring normal tankbusters without your help anyway. Still, cooldowns like Taurochole and Haima will probably be better for you in those situations anyway.

1 is more raw healing the other adds barrier, the idea is to use barrier before dmg goes out and the healing one when aoe hits to heal up. At higher lvls u have plenty of ways to heal up , but at 30 when the first spell is learned not much.
