Switch to Inner Will to cast Renew on the DPS. Refresh them with Heal if you need to. PW:S is too expensive and the shield too small to be worth it. A GH costs less and will do much more. Just pre-cast everything on the tank, and don't forget to use GS, as even Heals will be quite strong there. Not sure if this will work, but grip the stupid ranged closer to the tank so you can utilize Divine Star and hopefully hit them all at once. Don't forget about Void Shift with a follow up Desperate Prayer + Healthstone. DO NOT use the ground AoE. Only hitting two targets for ~1000 is a complete waste of mana. If you could get all 5 then it might be helpful during the heavy AoE phases.
Hope something I wrote helps. Good luck!
