    Healers in Stone, Sky, Sea

    How's everyone doing in Stone, Sky, Sea on healer jobs? The only one I've tried on my Scholar is the A4S one. At first I got to 4-5% on the first 3 tries, then I had probably more than 10 tries where I ran out of time at 1% HP... It drove me crazy but I finally beat it today. I was using Thordan weapon and otherwise i210 gear in each slot (all pieces with as much crit as possible). I didn't use food or potions.

    According to this chart the DPS requirement for SCH on that doll is 897.78 which is quite high, I guess, but I'm not sure if I should be struggling this much with beating it... So how are other healers doing with the dolls?

    I beat it on SCH at IL 203 with 200 Relic weapon. It took me like 10 tries as well, though! I love the SSS dummies for healers, they are very challenging if you do them at a purposefully handicapped IL and require you to know every exploit the job can have to pump out bigger numbers. It's def one of my favorite things on this patch despite how silly and useless it is haha.

    I tried it with WHM at a slightly lower IL and I couldn't even get past 10% before my MP ran out though. I think I left it at 8% q-q

    First attempt on A4S as AST got to 3%

    Still using VA belt and hands, and one i200 ring, otherwise 210 eso set. and i was lucky enough to get chain Balances; had an enhanced on opening, then two more normal after. stuff is tough but then its "for fun" so feels good. i might try again now i have a bit more power on a few gear pieces.

    Just for reference, a developer (to my knowledge) said food & potions don't have an effect in SSS so it's not worth wasting them. Same with accuracy, there is no cap so hits are guaranteed. =)

    On AST I got AS4 dummy to 1% many times with 210 armor and weapon, 200 belt and 190 accessories (one 185 ring). 201 average. Finally beat it with a second to spare. No food or potions. Your weapon makes a big difference I think. Also if you have higher left side gear than right side like me, your dps will be bigger for that average item level because armor has more stats. I probably wouldn't have made it if I had 210 accessories and 190 armor for example. I haven't unlocked midas savage yet but it's gonna be fun to test it.

    Wait. What? Content designed to test your gear / skill doesn't bother with your ACC?.......doesn't sound right.

    .....

    I had 12 seconds to think. It does sound like something SE would do - putting the least effort ever into content and trying to feed it too us.

    I've got A4S dummy down, SephEX too, but can't get the M1S one lower than 3% -I have the i210 Relic and every BiS piece except the pants (didn't drop from a3s, so still using VA ones).
