I've always thought Healing Seed and Healing Hands should be the other way around, but with the same cast time and cost. So they would be:

Healing Seed: For 10 seconds, whenever target other ally takes damage, that ally gains 3...25 health. (cast time 2, cost 10)

Healing Hands: For 10 seconds, whenever target ally takes damage, that ally and all adjacent allies gain 5...29 health. (cast time 1/4, cost 5)

But for monk skills, being able to target yourself is a factor in being elite worthy, and in this case, HH is elite because of cast time, cost and self-targetting, not because of what it does.

Why choose? Just bring em both

the fact is, that in my opinion, this USED to truly be the case.

HH used to only trigger on attacks. (and not heal as much)

Healing Seed used to last... i think it was 18 seconds? albeit for a heftier energy cost.

Healing Seed is much more powerful on paper, and is usually a more standard choice.

but try a HH monk with Seed and infuse in HA, it's actually quite nice.

And if you want too play a healer in RA, either HH or Healer's Boon are the only two real choices.
