For those of you that got it, how is it? Is it simply an extra 17.5% healing with Flash Heal? How does it feel in Dungeons? What’s the result of the extra casts and 10% increase to Serendipity? I assume more Holy Words?
Let me know what you think!

2-piece is equal to 1-2 less cast required to reset your Holy words. If you run LoTN you can reset Holy Word Salvation in 5 minutes while playing Archon (which gets faster Holy Word Resets with Surge of Light procs).
4-piece is pretty strong because it also triggers talents like Binding Heals/Trail of Light/Crisis Management/etc. It makes Lightweaver viable as a raid talent because it can be 8-10% of your overall healing which is 2x more overall healing provided compared to Divine Image or Lightwell. For M+ it gives you fairly bursty single target heals and combo’s very well with Archon’s Surge of Light procs.
Overall this is the best tier sets we’ve had in a while because unlike the S3 DF tier-set bonus we weren’t giga nerfed around it.
It’s just weird game development that they do this imo. Tier sets should be equal parts of adding new unique play styles and player power increase. For better or worse - depending on class and play style change - the tier sets generally achieve unique play style, which is good. The player power though is usually not there as they tend to nerf to where the set bonuses are “baseline“ - you are underpowered until you get it and then normal power with it.
Good to hear holy is strong without 4pc, and moves into the stratosphere with it.
