Maybe I'm missing it but why would you want Soothing Sermon adept III?

Because Soothing Sermon stacks with BoV/VBoF, in the sense that they will both fire when your tank is hit, giving you two reactive procs on each hit till one of them is spent. This is a much more mana-efficient way to keep your tank up when BoV doesn't cut it, than relying on direct heals. It's a bit more cumbersome, considering the 5sec cast on SS, but you'll find you use much less mana this way. Vs caster mobs is the only time I use direct heals really. (Anyone but me hate Nil Distortion?) As for your choices Andor, they look nice, as long as you remember that lvl12-20 will be harder without BoV adept III. I'd suggest Daring before Arch Healing though, since with SS adept III and VBoF you'll use Arch Healing very rarely, while Daring will always be there. I used my Daring adept III to lvl36-37 i believe, till Dauntless Adept I finally caught up... It depends on your playstyle though. And yeah, old heals will almost always be useful. BoV, SS, Arch Healing, Prayer of Amelioration, Favor of the Repentant are all on my main spell bar at 50... I even have Minor Healing on a secondary bar for filling in HO's when I don't need to use any other "chalice" spells :smileytongue:
