    Since we're moving into macro improvement territory:

    1) <tt> should never be paired with <t> for heal spells under any circumstances for the reason below:

    if you <tt> 1st then only <t>, you can ONLY heal the main tank, if you target the mob, mob's target = the tank, you heal the tank, now as Claire mention above, if you want to heal another person, you have no way to actually select him, this is because you select him , his <tt> is usually a monster, you probably think a monster is an invalid heal target, but actually it's not!! When you try to heal a monster, it will actually count as healing you yourself, so the 1st macro line with <tt>, will still be triggered, the healing target is you.



    2) I assume the reasons you're doing all these <tt> and <t> stuff, is so that you can heal + dps with minimal target swapping, am I right? If yes, I propose the following improvement:

    As you're a PS4 user, it's not simple to focus a target, but I highly recommend you do so, so you can keep track of monster spell casts in the future as well, what you can do is simply make a macro for focusing a target:
    /focustarget <t>
    This will allow you to assign your current target to be focused, next step is:

    Macro ALL your dps skills to as below:
    /ac AttackSkill <t>
    /ac AttackSkill <f>

    This allows your attack skills to 1st try to attack a targeted unit, which in a healer's case, usually is a friendly unit, so it will be invalid.
    Next if you have a monster focused (as you should!! for fights such as twintania), it will attack that monster.

    Thus you will be able to heal any friendly party member (usually your <t>), and dps at the same time if you have a monster focused (<f>).

    Hope this is helpful!!
