It's powerful, indeed, it doesn't do very much on it's own in the raid environment. Disc playstyle depends very much on other healer setup in the group. Assuming ofc you care about maximum efficiency proportionate to the incoming dmg, and not about your personal hps.
PWS is not spot healing. You seem to have a fundamental understanding issue with what absorbs are and how they are meant to work. You don't PWS people after they take dmg, you focus on preventing it in the first place. If you find yourself spot healing with PWS you are doing it wrong and so are your fellow healers. Using any sort of boss mods makes it trivial to prevent incoming damage, when coordinated with other raid wide cds, it suddenly is less spammy, more pleasant, and you can smite away in between to build up your AA, and/or focus on tank duty.
