    Checked your lodestone, your HP is so-so. Probably can do 4 stacks during Fireball, if 3 stacks RNG will kill you for sure unless you have time to Stoneskin yourself in every fireball, then okay. But I recommend atleast 4.4k HP with partymates and foods just to be sure.

    Once you hit those basic requirement,

    You can start off by practicing to time Stoneskin during Death Sentence and pre-casting Medica during Fireball.

    Dodge Divebombs, and Twisters. That's all there is to it really.

    As Thorauku said, your HP is a bit low. Aim for 4100 HP outside party without food.

    The most important thing to learn for WHM in this fight is dealing with Death Sentence and Fireballs. You need to know when a Death Sentence is coming and prepare for it and you need to be able to heal fireballs immediately after hit (I use cure 3 on fireball group). For me phase 2 was the most difficult to learn so don't be scared if it seems difficult at first. Turn 5 is all about practice, practice and practice. You may run out of MP when learning, that's normal too, it will get easier when you learn to handle your timings and cooldowns and when everyone else in the group learns their part too.

    There's a previous thread about healing turn 5 with some great advice here: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...=1#post1849910
