So I got bored one day, and decided to theorycraft up an interesting build/idea.

It's really awesome survivability, with obviously many sacrifices in the damage output department. Anyways I found mixing gear makes it even more interesting, I put on 2 pieces of my deadly holy set for int and sp.
I have tried it In battlegrounds only thus far In which I have had interesting results, I have been able to top healing and dps at the same time.
Now I know this is not "the norm" and is sort of outlandish, but it is interesting and I am considering trying this out in arena. I have been gladiator s2-3 as retribution so Id like to think I know my stuff apart from the noobs running around these days. I encourage people to give this a try, at the very least it is quite fun.
