Greatstaff of the Nexus from 10-man Malygos is a good piece, despite having hit rating on it. Certainly better for a dps caster, but still potentially a nice upgrade.

Yeah, that's what I figured I just hadn't had a chance to verify. So using Holy Nova for raid healing outside your own group is impossible.
