Best Healer for Lag

[Lerkins]

I have a weird question. Out of the two healing classes which one can deal with lag the best?
I Live in Australia and get around 250-300 ms lag when pinging the Japanese servers.
I have lvl'd up the two healing classes and really cant decide which one is best.
I just wanted to get others opinions on the matter.
Thanks

Probably Scholar, since the Fairy does most of the work, giving you time to do other things.
From what I understand, White Mage is more of a fly-by-the-seat job that is reactive instead of proactive.

Scholar. I had it once with a complete 2 minute lag (an eternity) and found that my Eos kept all alive. I just had to top the party up with a Succor.
If you know you are going to lag, place your fairy near the tank but be mindful of AOE.

Def Sch.

The fairy plus you can overheal without generating immense aggro or running out of MP i.e. spam physick/succor just to make sure no one dies while you're lagging.

Scholar by far.

The fairy can easily take care of situations if you lag out. I once disconnected during a fight, and the fairy healed everyone through and kept them alive until I "officially" logged out and came back in right after. You also won't have mana problems so you can overheal if you're not sure that someone got hit or not.

I was afraid that you were going to say Scholar.
I kinda wanted to be proved otherwise, as I have just got my atma weapon for my white mage .
I do get major lag (like the 2 min that some of you guys have) but that if few and far between, so I put up with that. Its more just being the time behind, which is just not enough time to get some eggs (benediction) of on the tank if they are down to 10% and they take that last hit.
I also find it easier to recover from a death with Scholar than white mage, in a trial or raid, as they have greater mana regen abilities.
Thanks for your responses guys

Neither. A healer with lag is a nightmare for everyone.
