    The faerie's heal is 2.5 second cast with a 3 second cooldown. My math is spot on, you are incorrect, the delay you are noticing is waiting for the 3 second cooldown. She chain casts using Embrace on cooldown if there is HP to be healed or isn't busy casting one of her other spells.

    1) No there isn't. Get a better connection.
    2) See #1
    3) You don't need to command, she will chain heal any target who is missing enough HP for the AI to consider it "not an overheal".
    4) Wrong, she starts heals on my tanks when they are missing less than 20% of their HP. It's based on the amount missing, not the percentage. She will wait for DPS to be lower than the tank to start a heal which is where I'm sure you're getting this 70% nonsense. Even if this were the case it's irrelevant considering most tanks during progression get hit for 50% of their health pool on Ifrit.

    I have noticed mine will wait until someone had taken a more significant amount of damage and then chaincast two or three embraces extremely quickly instead of keeping people topped off at a more reasonable level.

    Once you get to a point where your tank has 6000 hp, she won't wait as long to start a heal as you currently see at lower levels when players have HP pools that are closer to the tank's total HP.

    She heals the tank like crazy when she's in range (use place). There are often times where you will be in range to heal the tank, but Eos is not in range and won't heal at all.

    One example: I have found that placing Eos on the tail of Ifrit increases her healing throughput exponentially vs. letting her follow me around.

    See above. And again, if you are spending time clicking Embrace vs. placing her in range and letting her heal on her own you are wasting time and making things infinitely more complicated for yourself with zero benefit.

    So you suggest i rely on the bad ai and let eos heal on her own during hard modes? lol

    Most hard modes a small deficiet is bad, because of the one shot potential (e.g titan). Like someone said before she will wait till the peeps are much lower hp(especially non tanks).

    If you're trying to micro Embrace, you are doing it wrong - it's really that simple. All you are doing is delaying your own heals from being cast and healing priority targets.

    If you're trying to micro the AoE regen, +20% magic protect, and +increased healing that's fine.

    So it depends on what you are trying to accomplish. Proper placement of the Faerie (in range of the tank) and trusting the heals to be there is more productive, better throughput, and ultimately makes you a better healer.

    That's what your heals are for, if you honestly think that it's better time spent commanding your pet to cast a 300 value heal, vs your own 600-1350 value Aqloq or 400 value Physik you need to re-evaluate your skill priorities and this conversation is a lost cause.
