My first job was black mage, but the queues were long and at the time the lack of EU datacenters made my gameplay very difficult (looking at you Titan). I've yet to figure out how to get that stupid tab-target work better, so I figured healing would be easier with only F1-F8 targeting.

I wasn't too fond of white mage and at the time scholar was the only other option. It was the first time I played a healer with a pet, so I thought it was unique and interesting. I stress a lot, so the shields and Eos' backup help me to keep going without entering full-out freak mode like I do on AST and WHM (or when tanking instances I haven't memorized 100%). Back then I could also stay on Cleric Stance almost non-stop with Lustrate as my saving grace, so could pretend I was a wannabe summoner.
