So fed up of Scholar's thinking there all that, WHM have to deal with mana conservation and no way to get mana back without pots with a huge cd on them till you get mp regen skil at 38, which u can not use for this fight any way.

I had two groups with this fight, first was a Warrior, 1400 hp, i had 1250 as a WHM, he could not keep the agro and the dps were all over the place, obviously we failed and we gave up.
2nd time was with a Paladin tank, 1650 HP, i dont know what you tanks think u should do but i'd much prefer you put points in vitality and had the skill to keep the agro, the 2nd fight went well like others have said, people gathered together for his jump and everyone kept close enough for a aoe heal to hit them when needed, and cure I with cure II procs were fine to keep tank up.

I dont think the fight is hard if you have half decent gear from level 32 dungeon, if you go in undergeared as a full group you will likely fail. i have to be honest i dont love the constant spam healing that healers in ff seem to have to do, i dont know what i'd prefer but something slightly different, and no i dont want a fairy.
