    If you need ballad when solo healing this as whm you are either missing a trick (I assume you are aware that the unavoidable friction only targets healers? It's surprising how many people miss that detail) or holy spamming a bit too much. I do one holy during each set of plumes and it works out absolutely fine. Park yourself clear of the group to nullify friction damage and as long as the dps are killing the first add before it's wicked wheel it's a breeze. No ballad required =s

    Back on track, nicely done on the video, I'm with Alkimi on wanting to see Ifrit done, you guys clearly have people maximising support cool downs like mantra etc. The sticking point is the exact range of searing wind vs succor, I know it's pretty close between them but if succor is even a yard or two bigger then I suspect you can pull it off. Fey Covenent is surprisingly effective and of course rouse/wd equates to 21s of good times. That just leaves another 70 seconds or so of moderate AE to deal with whilst keeping the tanks up.

    I'd like to see Ifrit Ex done (WHMs have already solo healed it) but that last nail phase might be too much for them.
    Titan is totally possible since there's enough downtime between the script to spam aoe(though your dps would need to be good for a brd to keep that mp up). But everyone must dodge everything, unlike a whm which can just eat a bomb and still make quota. Sch would still totally derp on adds though.

    That almighty cure3 is just that strong.

    Bascially a sch soloing healing titan ex is more the PT then the sch. There's nothing a sch can really do in that fight to make it happen any better then normal.

    Ifrit though... I don't think it's possible to solo heal ifrit ex as a sch. Your fairy is constantly dying, and there's no way you can heal up the phase change...unless you're super super tight with the debuff, and even then. MP requirements would never let you heal enough to make board.

    Whm can use cure3 which is the best of the best for solo heal phase changes. Sch just doesn't have that.

    I don't understand this. Why is your fairy dieing all the time? If you are moving her like you should to avoid eruptions and dashes and then moving her into place for WD and healing tanks then she shouldn't be dying. If she is you are being a lazy SCH.

    Because it's highly dependent on the party where to place your fairy, especially tanks. a duh. Your fairy is probably living because pug groups make the team work harder and not even swap, and getting cure 3/medica2 in the process.

    It's a healer fight, yes, but about 70% of the eventual problems, is a tank that swing those swaps, baiting eruptions, and variable nail killing.

    The fairy will die simply because the party will not care where your fairy is. Like you're doing right now. Talk the tough talk, but when it comes down to it, it's just happens.

    Single healing as a whm or 2x whm is much much much much more easier, and simple in comparison. Lob those cure 3s, make sure you stack around long enough for the ballad, and make sure you don't get any unnecessary movements for those massive stacks (because the DPS will be going wild on ifrit pushing him into breaths)

Yes tanks can swap Ifrit around at a bad time but if you move the fairy around so that it wont matter then it wont matter. Japanese groups always do the Y formation for tanks so you always know how Ifrit is going to be facing.

    The fairy takes hardly any damage from the nails so that doesn't matter plus you either have WD up or Media 2 up to regen the part from the AoE damage from them to help the fairy not die. Plus you have Sustain which is amazing though many SCHs do not seem to use it enough. You can set your fairy right behind Ifrit with the rest of the DPS if you want to. Sustain when you see the Eruptions coming and she can eat a full 4 of them without dieing and she won't eat more than 4 with the DPS running away.

    I totally agree that the fight is easier with two WHMs. If the party I join in PF already has a WHM I will go as WHM to have two because it simpl is easier. But still your fairy shouldn't be dieing if you are taking care of it like you should.

    Again though "Your fairy is probably living because pug groups make the team work harder and not even swap and getting Cure3/medica2 in the process." I am not a native English speaker and it might be that, but this sentence sounds like you are saying because the fight is harder my fairy isn't dieing. How is that a logical argument. Also, what is wrong with getting cure3/medica2 in the process? You arguments make no sense and your fairy shouldn't be dieing if you know what you are doing.

    The only thing that you said that makes since is that 2WHMs makes this fight easier.
