He has a point..admittedly your feedback is pretty detailed, but I almost stopped reading as soon as you said you PLd then toon. If you played in on Test..maybe. But taking a new set, and doing that?|

Myself..I am finding the HoT from Rebirth to be really slow...and when used as a rez, it does not fully heal people. The animation is also way to long.
I'm really enjoying playing with my normal group and the duo or trio (depending on what alts people are playing) of NA players that are in our group. In fact, I think the set is so great during leveling play that I am probably going to purchase the set when it goes on sale or if there's a lull in powersets being released (currently saving my points to purchase Bio Armor day one). This is from deciding from reports on test that the set wasn't for me. I think the set, like most 'healing' sets has a bigger inpact lvling than on endgame content.
Nature Affinity is a good powerset, but it's not incredible. It's main strength is its healing capability, as far as I've seen (Water/Nature Corr, level 27).
Lifegiving Spores combined with an occasional Regrowth keeps a team incredibly healthy. So long as you're not trying to prevent a disaster, either one of these powers will keep squishies from going down (although they might not notice due to a portion of their healing being HoT).
Its support prowess is compounded with Wild Growth and Wild Bastion. Growth helps stave off damage as to offset the weakness of HoT, bursts of damage. Bastion is a more effective 'emergency' power. However, I've found that it is best used just -before- things start to go south. This isn't too hard to catch, if you're paying attention. Problem is... people won't notice you for it, and it's hard to know whether you were really the one who saved the day, or you were just using your powers.
I cannot attest to the hold toggle and Overgrowth yet, but Overgrowth looks to be an awesome buff. I'm excited to use it. Oh, and Rebirth.... it's a rez. Yeah.
