Just got the Castrum Meridianum with another WHM, who was a "mentor".

Throughout the entire dungeon he only cast 4 spells repeatedly, in this order of Frequency.
Medica II
Regen
Holy
Stoneskin II

Even if there was only one mob left, it was either Medica II or Holy.
Never a single Cure or Cure II. Never a single Stone II or Aero or Aero II.

Now of course due to the Medica II spam, he was pulling all of the hate. First time, he died, I raised him.
Second time I barely managed to keep him alive through the onslaught of mobs.
I told him there was no need to use Medica II since tank will take all of the hate.
He didn't care. Medica II spam increased.
Third time he died again. He didn't even try to heal himself. I mean...he did use Medica II again but that's it.

Now, please tell me. Is there some method to this madness of spamming Medica II and Regen in Castrum Meridianum ? I mean, he was a mentor after all!

With a fully gungho party you race between stuff and kill it so fast with improved aggro. Unfortunately it's usually a whm who kills this by spamming regens, which harms the parties ability to clump mobs effectively if the whm isn't right next to the tanks constantly.

Like regening between pulls.....when tanking, I appreciate it, but it's just gonna make aggro a pain.

As a healer I understand that it's meant to heal up between pulls....but I just use cure II.
