Soraka is fine. It's not that difficult to hit her Q, espcially if you aim it at the ADC when they try to get cs. The small aoe of the slow is suppose to be situational. It helps her kite if someone jumps on her, but prevents her from inflicting massive AOE slows in a fight. During teamfights and seiging, you have more targets. If your having trouble in lane with your own sustain, try HPRegen quints, and/or scaling HPRegen yellows. This is the one time I actually recommend any sort of scaling runes.

The bonus damage is needed to cut the already strong slow. It makes the ability feel worth using, without the slow being to strong.

The change to E is great. It adds counterplay, helps her zoning and teamfighting, and helps her peel. It's also better at catching enemies out of position than her old one. At rank 1 it prevents them from escaping for 2.5 seconds. That's as long as her old rank 5 silence. It only gets better with more levels. Downside is that you need to keep the enemy in the field for the first 1.5.
