    @Astral145 You are the players I LOVE to run into.

    @OP
    Arcanist is a dps that gains the ability to heal; it fullfills the Healer roll but it is expected to have it's dots on pretty much every target. I stopped playing SCH after I got to 50 in ARR because I didn't want to spend so much time DPSing on a Healer Because I, too, prefer my party to be topped up at all times. Sch also is a shield Healer, which is not as fluid for the Topped Off party mentality imo.
    That said, You'll probably enjoy Conj/WHM and Ast far more. Both still get expected from time to time to deal dps, but not like SCH and much more understood to be NOT dpsing.
    My advice: Only use Cleric Stance when Soloing until you KNOW that dungeon well if you use it at all. 90% of the time I'll just toss my dots on the targets without. "I'd rather interupt and be able to use a proper heal, then interupt>cleric off>heal=hope it goes off fast enough/etc"
    I reccomend macroing your DPS spells to the below; miasma example but all dps spells on your healer *** is macro
    ***
    /macroicon miasma
    /ac "miasma" <t>
    /ac "miasma" <tt>
    /ac "miasma" <ft>
    ***
    <t> is target and able to be used whem solo <tt> is Target's Target; this enables you to target your party member and attack without switching targets; <ft> is Focus Target; this might not be useful yet but many times Focusing the Boss so you can see its castbar is best, using this macro when not targeting anything or (party isn't, tank picking up adds outta range etc) it will cast to that; Works if you're dodging crap and toss out an instant dot etc.
