Tips for Healing in CT

[Mhaeric]

Behemoth (A): Don't stand near the comets when the Iron Giant is up.
The comets will periodically explode and burn anyone nearby. Don't take unnecessary damage, please.

Behemoth (B): Comet Burn can be Esuna/Leeched.
Same deal as with Valefor's Tail Swipe. You have no excuse to be dying to the DoT, which shouldn't be on you to begin with.

So frustrating as a healer seeing someone get the burn so you esuna it off only to have it reappear a couple seconds later, because they didn't move away.

I normally identify the SCH as the main pot healer (whether I'm on sch or whm) and focustarget it at the very least while using ss and adlo.

Also, though it hasn't been said here, I would like to clarify the point that comet burns can only be removed from players, not the comets themselves. I know that wasn't anyone's idea here, I'd just like the clarification.

I really wish you could Dispel and Heal comets :P

On Behemoth, if you get aggro on an IG as a healer, don't run all over the area getting comets destroyed. Go straight to the OT and give them time to get it off you.

I forget the names of the demons themselves; but on the Allagan Bomb fight right before Behemoth, I've been seeing tanks get poisoned; and nobody is using Esuna to cure them.

Sadly I've noticed this isn't exclusive to that fight/CT. Esuna/Leeches, use it please!

Also, I am a firm believer that all WHMs should have Regen on the MT at all times. I've yet to see anyone taking hate for it. Particularly in the Behe fight, pop Regen on the tank!

gotta say, a 9k+ WAR with six Regens on him (yes, it works cross-party) is a thing of absolute beauty.

CT as a healer is painstakingly boring, I don't even get why people need this, they must be really really really bad. I mean don't get me wrong I've encountered some people who are really bad. Healing parties that can't heal their main tank is just way more likely. Like having two healers but for some reason they can't heal the MT through KB; when two good healers can heal the MT and the Iron Giant easily, not even well geared maybe mostly ilvl 70.

I've been leveling BRD lately, and I can say there are a lot of bad healers out there, which is absolutely frustrating as I'm leveling because I give them advice on how to heal better and they ignore me - because what would a DPS know about healing - and then they expect Mage's Ballad 2 minutes into a boss fight. My options are either to wipe by not giving them MB or give them their mana crutch and feed their bad habits. CT is no exception.

Only thing i've really learned from CT is when your a white mage on bone dragon save shroud of saints because tanks and dps will leave you to die once you pull skelly's or even the floating eyes when dps is slow.

Today i went into CT for the first time as bard to find how bad healers are at their job...
KB fight - healers used cure II on low damaged party members and used medica II multiple times instead of swapping to cure III or medica I once the tick was applied and was out of MP within a matter of minutes while i got no heals and died from the electric floor.
