This is actually one of the worst uses of macro a SCH can perform. The most flexible thing a SCH can do is apply a heal of acceptable potency to two people at once. This is what makes their lack of AOE healing potency compared to WHM okay! This macro takes a class famous for their flexibility and greatly lessens it. Letting Eos do her own thing while you heal the Tank is often the same as letting her get the rest of the party up whenever damage hits them. Besides, she tends to focus on party members with less health unless she's the one with less health, so a healthy rest-of-party will end up getting the Tank embraced anyway.
Yep, same rules as players, but the point below helps with that I think. This problem does only affect Embrace, however. The stay command will always allow you to cancel an Embrace and then immediately use a cooldown.B. You use Embrace only to find out that Eos already cast it 1.1 seconds earlier. It takes 2 secs to cast and 5 total from cast to recast to cast it again. (tongue tied)
I believe Eos follows the same concepts of being able to queue up a GCD skill slightly by hitting it up to a second before it's actually available to ensure it's used the millisecond it becomes so. Either way, if you really think X person should be healed with Embrace next, Eos will agree with you in most situations. She's not quite that dumbC. Correct me if im wrong, It seems if Eos casts Embrace on a player you literally have to spam it to make sure she targets your target you want to heal next. (im sorry if that didn't make sense)
One, every heal helps. Eos will never overheal unless some other heal hits her intended target during an Embrace cast. Two, Eos healing randoms is a saving grace more in 4 mans or double scholar action than it is in a SCH/WHM combo.D. Your focusing tank heals and she heals randoms. As I understand it, WHM is more suited to heal everyone else and SCH are suited to focus the tanks. Bless you WHM, bless you.
