    Just to set the record straight, the threshold is 80% for self, Eos, or party members. If you are below 80%, she will heal you regardless of everyone else's percentage. If you are above 80%, she will heal the lowest % party member in range (which btw is only 21y for auto casting last I tested it).

    I personally think it works well as is. Honestly, it was a much bigger deal at level 50. They nerfed off about 1/3 of your faerie's healing potency with level scaling formula to 60 so Embrace is equivalent to 200 instead of 300 at 60.

    I would like a target lock option and a higher HP threshold for auto-Embrace. If the health bar is at 80% and the cast begins it will be lower once the heal takes effect and it won't heal the person to full. The fairy produces so little aggro that free overhealing would not be an issue. Make it something like 95%.

    I fail to see the problem. My fairies are there to help, not read my mind. However, I can understand how the AI works and essentially read their minds. If Eos/Selene prioritize based on which party member has the lowest HP, then you know exactly where embrace is going. All you need to do is heal someone else.

    I hear a lot of people complaining about the fairy AI, and maybe I still need to get higher to establish my own gripes. But as of now, both of them have saved my ass on more than one occasion thanks to that lovely auto cure. Anytime Eos/Selene has done something non-beneficial resulting in something like an over-heal, not healing, or wasting a long CD ability, I've put the blame on myself.

    Have you tried a macro that spams several embraces on a single target?

    Please SE can you adjust the steady command so that the fairy will only cast embrace on command?
    This would be so helpful in certain end game raid and give more flexibility to the SCH role.
    Of course in any other stance the fairy can resume the auto cast AI.
    Anyone think this a good idea??
    I would like an option to customize her AI as well, and to manually set priorities.

    Thats allot of love to give to one class. ._. I think the OPs suggestion is reasonable. The current AI is there to help you when everything is hitting the fan and still has you be active by healing with her above 80%. I could see how amazing your option would be though.

    Honestly, I don't think it is that unreasonable to adjust the AI. It's not like it would make her OP, just give us more control. I could set it that I'd prefer her to heal the tank > DPS > me, as I can heal myself - or whatever. I could set the threshold to 85% instead of 80% just because. It's not like her healing potency would skyrocket.
