Healing Ultima is intense.

Eruptions is definitely the hardest part for me. Running when they target you, and running when the dps runs over you when it targets them. End result is the same, no heals on tank. I've also had problems getting interrupted for seemingly no reason. That is pretty frustrating.

The interruption may come from tank moving out of range. I noticed it several time as well.

And yea, Elurra, I hate when DPS being chased by eruption running over me...
Sometimes, the funniest thing is when multiple players are dodging in the same direction, you can't tell eruption is after which one, lol.

But anyway, still wondering: other than consciously avoiding wasting Benediction & Swiftcast, anyway to make sure tank gets heal when both healers targeted by eruption? There may be cases when both healers are WHM

Well, not that I am expecting any answer...guess that it then.

The highlight for me was when I was running around the edge from eruptions targeting me and the Bard came in from the other direction running from his, causing me to get trapped and forced to run into his.

This usually happens if you start healing the moment you stop moving because the game thinks you're still moving. Best to wait about half of a second before you begin casting.

You can also take advantage of this in the opposite way where you can start moving about a half second before a spell finishes casting.

If I really need to cast a heal, I'll usually eat one of the eruptions and then heal myself up after.

That could be it. I do take advantage of the healing on the move trick. Never thought about the opposite causing problems like that, but it makes sense. Thanks for the tips everyone.
