If you are confident you can heal mechanics like nidhogg ex and a12 swithout synastry then do so. It's wise to save it during a "Oh Sh-" than using it all the time. I grind my teeth when I make that mistake and know I could of saved the party if I saved Synastry for something I really needed it for. lol


Keeping up with the HPS requirement is fine and all. But do remember we are playing with fellow humans behind the screen. It's amazing to have a healer that can keep their party members alive after their mistake has been made.

Synastry should be treated like divine seal and used as frequently as possible while planning it's availability for healing intensive mechanic damaging abilities. Since having an ast in the party typically means an absence of a white mage it can also be used when a dark knight activates living dead and the debuff is proc'd, or when wanting to heal two targets simultaneously since cure 3 is absent as well.

*Whistles

Depends. If you know you can use it a few times before a boss, it doesn't hurt. It's also nice to use if you have another target that keeps getting pelted.

*Blows on Tissue

I mostly use it though in one of Four situations:

Burst heal a tank from rapid Tank busting damage.

Where burst aoe heal is required. (Sophia EX Aoe spamming 4 times on party members who are affected by vulnerability stacks)

Popping it on a tank while I save a healer trying to dodge so the tank won't miss out on needed hps.

Making the regen ticks stronger on Dirunal regens and Collective unconscious when it's needed.
