Question on Scholar's pet

[Vena_Sera]

Parse myself as in see how much I've cured? Sorry but in tons of fights we're not winning by the skin of our teeth in that respect. So my point stands.

Do you people even read? Or are you just that good at misinterpretation? I said in my previous post that if you want a dps boost, then go cleric stance and dps. The dps output from you using cleric and doing damage (granted you even know how to do it properly) will do more damage than using selene. Don't believe me? Go parse it.

You're (mistakenly) believing that you need to use Eos if you want to DPS yourself. You do not. In fact, a lot of that Roused Whispering Dawn is going straight to overhealing at that point, and you'd be wasting it for a time when you might actually NEED that AOE healing.

Scholars need to get the misconception out of their head that they need Eos to DPS. There's no difference between Selene's Embrace and Eos's Embrace in terms of healing potency. Pre-casted Embraces+WHM Regen are enough to keep a tank up through the auto-attacks of most bosses in the game. That 500 HP every 3 seconds from Whispering Dawn doesn't give you as much wiggle room as you think it does.

I'm still trying to figure out where I said you NEED eos to be able to dps. I simply stated that it's the safest and overall more effective option. Regen + WD can even enable both healers to dps if they so choose. The fact that we're pushing 3 meteors on T9 with sch/whm dps + eos pretty much speaks for that. Regen/WD+embrace can eat Nael's auto attacks/claw easily. Granted this is only 1 fight, but I've played around with both methods. With selene and without. And having Eos contributed to more overall rdps than using selene.
