The only piece that DOES is the Orison Mitts, which you macro in for Regen, Barspells and Divine Caress. I would never cure in those, Blessed Mitts/+1 are still quite superior IMO.

WHM's have been running around with such low gear Enmity lately that they were getting spoiled from Atma. The norm used to be ~25 gear Enmity, and these days it is more like 10 (Orison Cape/Blessed).
