Divine Light just makes no sense. I played around with a beta talent calculator and a 51/5/18 Holy build seems really intuitive right off the bat, leaving 2 points unused for experimentation.

That said, Divine Light in its current format is in too narrow of a niche to be remembered or useful IMO. Say I cast Holy Shock and somehow don't manage to crit and get the GCD-free Flash of Light, leaving another 5 seconds (after GCD) before Holy Shock is off CD. Then I have a 3 second window in which to start casting Divine Light or else it's more advantageous to get a Holy Light/Holy Shock/Holy Light combo with 2 seconds to go on the Holy Shock CD.

And with health pools allowing for more flexibility, isn't there a possibility of simply allowing players to spam Holy Light? It is far less costly and even transfers among the Beacon of Light.

Something has got to change with Divine Light, or I'm spending it's point elsewhere and going back to a 2-trick pony.
