The long cooldown makes it less than reliable for healing. I would use it before jumping in so you can get your max HP up and boost your regen while it lasts. I have never used EE against Hamidon, though. An Essence of Earth should be all you need against the raid Hami, and the LGTF Hami dies too fast to need any real tanking.
That is not at all what I'm asking. I want to know if it's affected by Heal debuffs or not.

I've used my Stone tank a number of times on Hami raids. I'll use Earth's Embrace more for the +hp then the heal. With the +regen I'm getting from the team buffs, it pushes the +regen cap higher. Sometimes to the point where I can end up with over 300 hp/sec regen.
I vaguely recall a couple of times were my regen numbers were debuffed by the Mending Mitos to the point they were in the red, but I don't recall if that was on my Stone tank, or one of my other tanks. I also don't recall if the heal "didn't work" at times because of the green Mitos. I have about 8-9 toons I'll run through the Hami raids, and it's been a few months since I've run the Stone through a Hamidon raid.
I'll try and remember to take my Stone tank to the next raid and see if I can test this, without being a detriment to the raid.

The tank version of Earth's Embrace is debuffed by the Mitos, however, last time I checked, the debuff was not affecting the brute version. That was several months ago, so it may have changed, but at that time tank EE was debuffed but brute EE was not.
I was looking through the Real Numbers for various powers, and noticed that the healing portion of Earth's Embrace isn't listed as unresistable. This is unusual; most other self-heal powers are unresistable.
I was wondering if that was accurate. Has anyone taken a Stone Armor character up against Hamidon and been unable to heal with Earth's Embrace after being pounded by green mitos?
