Completely different story here. Almost every SMN I met didn't fail me when I was needing support.

Wow. That's weird. It'd be nice if I could have some of those SMNs at times. @_@ Send them my way plz!

Anyway scholar should rez instead of a sum. They mp drains away a lot faster.

Usually this, yes. I don't want to see SMN blowing MP and action time on rezzing unless healers are already dangerously low on MP from rezzing or are themselves dead.

Ofc if theres to many deaths it always helps.
But I like sum not doing much, not even virus cause I like to use it the moment I know ill need it.
Eye for an eye is the only thing Idc that they use whenever they want

SCH>SMN>WHM should be the priority for raises in raid content. The WHM already has to re-protect and maybe SS depending on the situation so the MP cost is already high enough.

Having both a SMN and SCH virus adds more oppertunites that a group wouldn't otherwise have. Such as adds or additional big attacks (turn 10 charges), and not just a boss.

I meant as a WHM. I ignore the Fairy of my cohealer. A bad habit, I know. lol

Oh
Well thats ok then haha

I usually heal as if I'm the only healer. If healing is light I'll CS and throw out a few DPS spells but generally I prefer to use my MP for healing and would hate to run out of MP at a critical moment due to me spending too much of it DPS'ing.


Not sure why the text next to my av says my main class is ACN, I usually play as WHM, can't find a way to edit it?

2) The white mage "solo heals" for most of it while the scholar only assists for big hits (ie: Adloquium before tank killing moves). It's not uncommon for the healer to outheal the scholar.

Case 2 is probably the most common one

Sounds like the common unwriten rules are that scholars are lazy. :P
