Hello! Advice for a newbie healer and new friends?

[Mimilu]

Would you say it's a good idea to get Arcanist up to level 30 and switch to scholar? And what's a good way to level besides doing all the side quests? I know of levelquests, haven't tried guild quests as of yet but I plan on at some point and dungeoning.

Also, I started a new character on Behemoth, the same name, to practice things better and I finally hit lvl 40 as my white mage on Byrn .

Switching depends on how you want to play as a healer: IF you want to have the strongest heals, White Mage might be a better choice. If you want to function more like an off-healer, adding DPS and placing shields before big attacks, then maybe Scholar.

As for leveling, dungeons and FATEs can help level as well.
