POLL: Best healer for 4 mans?

[LegoTechnic]

But I feel like the speedrunning of dungeons was a thing only back in 2.0 with WP. Haven't seen anymore of hype videos tossed around 'bout dungeon speedruns after that. Maybe with Brayflox HM but that's 'bout it really, so not like it really matters, but for those that want to do things fast, theorically I believe whm + war tank combo + mnk/smn party would be the combo to go with.

That's because speed running dungeons is now the standard. If you're single-pulling mob sets in Arboretum when you don't have to you're going to potentially see people drop. There are also an awful lot of "gate-stops" in newer dungeons that temporarily halt you which makes it less interesting than something like Flox-hard used to be.

Also why on Earth would you suggest a MNK over a BLM for a speed run?

Cause I have yet to see any blm's having better parse over the whole dungeon* than on mnk + that way you get a melee lb for boss/bosses depending which would be better.

*All trash pulls + downtimes between pulls + bosses in same parse

In a speed run you are better served using caster limit break on large pulls of trash adds. This is always the case unless the last few trash mobs are gated.
