Well i do agree, it Does help if you need it.
And yeah the spell can reload almost 2/3 time during the whole p1
I do not need it and prefer to handle it by pre-casting since all attack are easy to prédiction.
I mean as diurnal AST I never had problem.

The only 2 time lose someone, that was the bard who forgot to pack and stay out of range
And the smn who did the same.
That was not a casting problem just a LAZY player problem XD i won't single heal them and maybe losing my tank
...

But i don't disagree i was more saying that there is an other way without it.
Plus i tend to see people dying right after i swiftcast heal... So now i forbid myself doing it XD

It's very easy to move in-position after the puddles to hit everyone with Medica/Helios. Thanks to two great skills in this game:

Light speed or Swiftcast Medica/Helios > Medica/Helios.

You can Tetra/ED instant someone who is low even before AoE heals. The tank buster comes after the two AoEs and you can Disable that one if it's up, so that isn't true at all about possibly losing a tank. It's called knowing the script of the fight and reacting to it. But saying you won't Swiftcast because you, yourself, didn't see it work is a lousy argument to make. Plus White Mage only has Swiftcast. The job of a healer isn't just to heal but to try save any situation within your power.
