Controlling a White Mage / Healing with a computer

[Slark]

I heal by using F1 through F5, and clicking on Party members 6-8 to target.
My keybinds are: 1-6, alt+1-6, Q, E, R, C, X, F, and ALT+ Q, E, R, C, X, F. I click on a very select few nonpriority spells (Such as Aero II for example.)

If I need to constantly switch healing targets, I switch target mid heal/while global cooldown is going on for instant spells. GCD is rather long in this game, so it isn't that hard, and it is incredibly fast if you are good at it. If you aren't used to it though, I would imagine it would take some practice.

Another alternative is to use MO and targetoftarget macros for your spells. The way this works is you mouse over the party members HP bar and press your heal. It will heal them as if you targetted them. targetoftarget causes the spell to stick to whatever your targets target is (Good for things like Virus).

I would strongly disadvise making macros for each individual party member, as this is incredibly taxing on space, memory, efficiency, and well... It's a little silly to be walking around with 16 keys just for Cure and Cure II to be honest Even if you could make that many bars for skills, its very bad to have that much stuff on your screen. You want your screen and UI to be as clear as possible so you can see whats going on.
