    fairies in low level dungeons

    What's the best way to manage fairies when running in low level dungeons?

    I have Eos or Selene mostly set on manual but that only limits the higher buffs.
    I do my best to not steal aggro, as WHM I have complete control of heal timings, but as Scholar both Eos and Selene will spot heal any party member.
    In the last dungeon (Tam-Tara, I think) it was impossible for tank to keep aggro, and I could tell he was really trying.
    I kinda felt like a jerk but I didn't know what to do about it (other than dismissing the fairy, which I didn't want to do)

    What would be the a good way of handling this?

    If a tank cant handle Fairyaggro....sorry but if the healer doesnt overheal the tank was really crappy...
    Or the Tank was like paper and the fairy have to heal her ass of lol, but srsly if you use 2-3 Flash/Overpower you dont lose aggro to this little helper.

    Yeah, fairy aggro is only ever an issue if the tank is extraordinarily bad/badly geared or the fairy is on Sic and blowing cooldowns right as a tank is beginning to pull a spread-out group of mobs.

    In other words it should never happen even when forcibly spamming Embraces.

    If I use SCH in low levels I just sit in Cleric Stance. Eos is OP as shit in those places.

    As many have been saying, you don't need to heal if you have the Eos out. Just sustain it if it takes damage, stay in cleric stance and DPS to your heart's content.

    If you don't want it to heal, can't you just place it in Steady? I know that in Obey it'll still use embrace but I'm pretty sure Steady just makes it do absolutely nothing.

    Then you can use Sic or Obey when the tank has enough aggro.

    No , anytime target is under 80% Eos will heal it, even outside of parties random players get heals from my Eos all the time when they switch from like a low lvl DPS to a tank
