    Healing is a lot harder overall, because the other classes are very limited in their ability to correct mistakes. If someone screws up and gets hit by a fireball in O1s, only the healer can save them and its a split second decision. Maybe its a healer/dps + tank argument-the latter really have it easier due to it being self-contained more.

    If someone goes wrong way with thunder mark, it's easily doable to recover.
    It's harder than you think. The reaction time is pretty small because it can cascade to kill the next person even if you heal it, since it leaves them at low hp enough.

    I usually throw asylum and medica2. So if it happens I use instant aoe heal.

    I usually save asylum for the ukehi after it, since it hits multiple times. More often I just have to swift or precast medica or even c3 to get people up after a flubbed bolt, and then a fast cure to the next marked target. But either way you need to react pretty fast to read that the person doesn't see he has the marker, and then act correctly in a matter of seconds. It's not really easy to do this, especially after the sixth run.

    If these huge mistakes (including a mostly dead group) can be overcome by self-proclaimed casual healers I don't think the argument can be reasonably made that the 4.0 ex primals are not faceroll.
    ..if you are farming ex primals when they are relevant, to the point where you feel ok solo healing them, you aren't a casual healer, good lord.
