Default SY! or SoR?

Hi guys, I was wondering which do u prefer for high end PvE/HM? Spamming SY! with Focused anger is good but Anet has recently changed Song of Restoration and now it heals for quite a bit. What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance.

The two aren't even comparable. SY! is orders of magnitude better than practically any other skill in the game.

+100 armor will reduce non-armor ignoring damage taken by 82.5% (on top of any other armor over 60). So id say about an extra 60% dmg reduction if you include things like hexes/conditions/shadow/holy dmg.

SoR provides a 100-110~ party heal every 20 seconds.

My vote goes for SY!

Heroes can't run SY, but they can run SoR well enough. Stick what the player does best on the player.

Actually 30 seconds now. *cough*

There's Nothing To Fear! ending is a stronger option and requires 0 attribute points. Oh, it's also amazing on every single paragon bar. SY is stronger than TNTF, and both are leagues above SoR.
