Excuse my ignorance: can't use swiftcast while synced?

Cross-class doesn't care about the level of the cross-classed skill, just that the slot would be available. Swiftcast is level 26, but I've been able to use it even when levelsynced since it's in the second slot. Point of interest... You can't actually make use of it until level 28 since you can't raise during combat (CNJ/WHM,) but you can use Resurrect (level 22) on ACN/SMN/SCH.

No different than me cross-classing stoneskin on PLD in the first slot and being able to use it Haukke Manor, a level 28 dungeon when the WHM still can't.

As for SCH, I rather have Cleric Stance in the 2nd slot because the fairy is doing the bulk of the healing work in those level 20+ dungeons and Swiftcast isn't really needed. The 3rd slot makes the most sense because of the heavy-hitters of Brayflox and Qarn.
