Trigger happy on that Fluid Aura

But we are the only ones to take special joy in sending people off ledges. Along with Garuda-egi of course. >D

I'm trigger happy with Fluid Aura... when the monster is about to die. For some reason, I really enjoy finishing off a monster with that spell. Occasionally, I'll also try to save a teammate who's being attacked by using Fluid Aura to push it towards the tank (if positioning allows), or to cancel a monster's spell cast.

But I occasionally accidentally use it early, which annoys my party. But when that happens, it's indeed unintended. x_x

Oh, and of course I use it for extra damage on targets that are immune to pushback.

Using Fluid Aura is best used in Frontlines and when soloing (if someone comes up to help you with a mob and you Fluid Aura it's incredibly infuriating). Be careful with Fluid Aura with the tank and melee in party. I never give WHMs commendations if they Fluid Aura a mob away from the tank as he runs towards it trying to get aggro.

I seldom use it in group dungeons outside of bosses that are immune to knockback. It's nice for a little extra mp-free-insta-damage. Beyond that, I can't think of too many other times I use it except on Titan to fling at Gaols to help break them. Other than those two instances, I reserve it for solo play.
