Ofc it doesnt have group/range restrictions, its a single target spell, how can you compare a single target spell with an aoe one? If prayer of healing hits 5 targets, it could heal for 350k non crit, bet you dont get that from PWS. As for spot healing, it has 0 value, PWS does not heal. It's a great spell, it saves lives, it offers a great buffer to give time for an actual heal from you or somebody else, it can even give a speed buff for your target to get out of shit faster, but what it does not do, is heal.
Yes, I know, semantics. But if 3-4 targets in a party took damage during my raid, I'll most likely PoH, or if the raid is very spread and there is no indicator that PoH will hit efficiently, I might choose to Cascade or Penance or atonement or even PWS if one of them is on critical hp, but what I won't do is PWSx4. Its a great spell, in specific situations, not generally tossed on any target. The only thing that can be called "spammed" atm for disc is atonement.
