Default Viable alternative to monk primarys in RA

I came up with a D/Mo build that serves as a very durable protector/healer in random arena. I had a lot of fun and success with it over the last few days and I'd like to hear some other opinions about it's viability. Try it and give me some feedback please. =D

We saw some of these builds this week.

The problem is once other team notice you're the healer, you're dead meat, and faster than a monk...

May as well get my 2c in before JR/Squidget cast spirit shackles on this thread.

Dead meat faster than a monk: Maybe. Anything you cast on yourself would give 53HP, with 16HP/5e when it ended, so as long as you can spam ROF fast enough and the avatar doesn't run out, you can stay up a long time.

It may be as good or better at survival than boon prot or b-light, but the mechanisms for powering out healing are weak. Imbue health is on a lengthy recharge, dismiss condition is unwieldy without a long-lasting enchantment.

You'll still get glad points from it, because any team with a healer pretty much auto-wins against a team without a healer (I farm them with my E/Mo prodigy healer, whoopie), but this isn't really that great. If you want to make a good Dervish healing template, the best place to start would be Signet of Pious Light. A ritualist secondary in restoration would be more expensive, but more efficient at healing others since restoration magic isn't balanced around having a DF bonus. And vengeful weapon owns RA.
