SCH help, I'm so confused with Fairys

[Jayandwendy4ever]

Oh okay I was worried if I had her on obey and she's healing a lot I would cause aggro and mess up the party or something. Should I also have her on gaurd? Or steady or does it matter?

Eos and Selene will auto heal when someone gets near the 70% mark of HP. Eos wont generate too much agro so long as she isn't using whispering dawn. In higher level dungeons its safer to use whispering dawn, its dungeons like sastasha where eos can actually steal agro if she uses that skill. Try not to worry too much about eos stealing agro, although it does happen it isn't a common thing and its better for Eos to be under attack than you.

I recommend making a macro to use Rouse and command Eos to use Whispering Dawn at the same time to increase regen potency this is good in situations where you want to top everyone off or you know the entire party will take nasty hits like Titan's Tumult(stomps). Fey illumination will increase the potency of healing magic cast so it will improve both your and eos' heals as well as any other healers in your party which is useful when you notice hp dropping a bit faster that you can heal.

I also recommend making macros so that whenever you heal eos will heal whoever you mouse over. So its entirely possible to heal two people at once, you heal one person and eos heals the other.

As for stances I keep her on guard I don't think they actually apply to eos and selene as I believe steady is to tell the pet to not attack anything but the fairies are healers so they don't do that anyway. I may be wrong about steady since I hardly ever used that command since I main scholar but I'm confident that stance is pretty much irrelevant for the fairies.

On the rare occasion I use EOS I keep her on Obey / Guard and macro her heals into mine. This guide has some great macros that can start you on your way. Don't worry about aggro this should never be an issue since you split it with EOS.

I prefer to use selene for her buffs, the embrace macros will still work so you just need to add her buffs on your bar and watch as BLMS melt face even faster.
