  It'll work. Seraphim won't be boosting most of ur dmg, since that's still largely Physical, but the heal boosts, heal aura, and potential to proc Honor in Arbiter_Overseer passively can outweigh that. Otherwise I'd just consider using AoPM (or AoRP).
  
  Spirit Reverb does work well w/ Void Shift's adv and 100Hands and/or DU w/ adv- I'd keep that aspect of the build intact regardless. Vala's Light and Conviction w/ Reverence become a bit better as ally heals when ur melee and clumped up w/ other melee_tanks. Conduit can also be good for its chaining ability, but you'll want to pair it w/ Illumination w/ adv then- else ya may want to consider using a diff main heal that's not as energy-heavy.
  
  Ya could use Compassion as the toggle if ur keeping Serpahim (and/or use Sentinel Aura) w/ a Pres focus if ya want to stress the healing portion over the dmg portion, but that's ultimately up to you. One benefit of the Focus toggle is that ya get Rush when using DU, which is nice for energy (though energy is less of a concern if ur playing in the Support role).
  
  I'd get rid of Mind Break, since its not adding much to the build and can expire other payer's TP dots (which they prob won't like), and drop Elusive Monk on Parry (Parry is a fine block, but EM adds a dmg penalty that I wouldn't take on a non-tanking build). Ya do have a 2nd passive at R1 (LR) in there, and I dunno why- perhaps ya meant to put R1 Masterful Dodge in there instead?
  
  An ally res and/or self res would be a good idea if ur playing more of a support role.
  
  Lastly- what are Ego Sprites going to be used for? Its a fine AoE DoT on its own, but if ya plan on using them regularly then you'll want to rank them up. Alternatively, ya could consider replacing the power w/ Mental Storm's dps boost, Mental Leech's self-healing, or Shadow of Doubt's -dmg debuff.

  The newer build looks pretty good, but its lacking in a regular heal (Conviction w/ Rev is nice, but its more of a self-heal for ur own survival that also has a minor splash component). Its up to you if ya want to have more healing capabilities or not, since that's more based off the intent or playstyle of the character, but I'd prob first drop Vengeance or Sprites if ya wanted to include a normal ally heal (aoe attacks are good, but ya do already have 100Hands).
