    in my opinion place is best utilized during fights that require you, and everyone else to move a lot. but in most fight having her on heel shouldnt be an issue. i kow fights like A4/S were better when the fairy was.placed since the healers needed to stay away from eachother.

    The problem with Place is the faerie's limited range. Auto-healing only triggers within 21y (not a big deal if you are manually spamming, though). The bigger deal is whispering dawn and your other cooldowns only have a 15y radius. I can't really think of fights that require a ton of movement over a small enough area that people will stay in range. Also consider that Embrace has a 2s cast and 3s cooldown, so she can move a little without losing healing output. In the end, I usually just keep her on heal and worry about positioning myself.

    I agree that A4 warrants using Place to park the faerie in the middle due to the unique healer positioning requirements of that fight (can't just stand in the middle as normal).
