Gated healing question

[Fernosaur]

I'll definitely take this advice. AST jumps out to me first, since I like the idea of the card gimmick. I'll probably try SCH then WHM.

The card gimmick is fun when you actually get to use it (since you don't get cards until lvl 30 you're stuck without them in low level dungeons), but if you're actually willing to give AST a try, I will suggest to be very patient until you hit lvl 45 at least, since that's when you get all your tools for card management. Until then, you might find yourself being frustrated with not getting any good cards ever :P

I've started my journey with Astrologian and will definitely be patient It seems like a fun and interesting class to master.

I did have a general healing question; is there a more effective way to target specific allies/enemies (PS4 Gamepad)? My usual approach, with Monk, is to hit my closest target, unless it was to eliminate a specific add. I can tell standing near an ally isn't always a viable option.

I don't use game pad myself but I've heard from a friend healer who uses it that there is some way to target people straight from the party list, I seem to recall it was mentioned to be down arrow and up arrow on cross button. Or something similar.

You basically press up and down on the controller to select through the list. Here is a reddit link with advice on how to use a controller.

Basically use up and down on the d-pad to cycle through party list.

For enemies you can use the left or right arrows on the d-pad. The better way, though, is to hold L1 and use the up and down arrows to cycle through the enemies on the enmity list

Another way is to hold Cross Bar buttons (L2 or R2) and cycle through enemies only with L1 and R1.

Awesome! Thanks for the replies guys. I'm enjoying Astrologian so far and applying the knowledge
