personally not a fan of scholar myself. As for trusting your fairies. Dont. If you manual cast thier heal instead of waiting for auto, you dont need to worry about the fairy waiting for some low threshold of health that is often too late.

Mass pulls are typically this

Tank pulls everything they can while it eats through shield. Put up any hots or shields your can to help heal while you cleric. Use your healing cooldowns
go cleric
Get up your dots and aoe, if sch do NOT stop manually spamming fairy heals into tank. that is your "hot".
pop out of cleric when tank gets low enough to scare you and drop your instacast oh crap heal on them immediately. rcover and repeat as needed.


Personally I play with my whm. Do pop cooldown/regen and even a medica 2 depending on size then aoe my ass off. Having bene and tetra to fall back on lets whm really play a dangerous game with tank health
