Healing help with a sch as a whm in a1s.

[Lyrica_Ashtine]

Do you stun the pack in wave 4? We were initially stunning that pack and things were good. However, the driver needed more energy so we stopped doing it. Now I have two snipers in my face. That's makes the 4 - 5 transition a pain. It's really hard to keep the tanks topped off when I get interrupted and have to heal myself. The tanks being topped off before wave 5 means I'll be more likely to solo heal it.

I have the same issue to deal with, except I'm an Astrologian. Aspected Benefic in Diurnal sect is enough to keep me (or the other healer) alive, surely Regen can as well.

How much do you think a sch should heal in wave 5 with the double widows? The damage on the tanks seem spiky during that first part of that phase. I'm thinking about having the sch help heal through the first prey and/or until the soldiers are dead. After that I feel like I can keep the tanks topped off pretty easy.

Advice here can go two ways; get helped or stay solo. But keep in mind that while healer DPS is nice, endurance is a bigger factor in this encounter. Considering you have no bard or machinist, it's an even greater factor. The biggest source of damage for a Scholar would be spreading the DoTs. While he/she can use Broil/Ruin as filler spell to deal some extra damage, it may make or break the encounter in the long run. Unless your group is hitting the "enrage" for Alexander Savage 2, your Scholar should help out healing instead if you're constantly running out of MP. Whoever you're healing with will need to find the balance of dealing damage and concentrating on healing (in favor of "endurance").
