I am quite new to healing in ffxiv, as i played DRG as my first job to get used to the gameplay of this, and then started leveling WHM as my 2nd. Have been playing for just over a week as WHM, have reached lvl 62 now and I'm loving it! The few mmo's i have played before this I was normally a healer.

That being said, now that i have started getting into lvl 50+ dungeons & trials, I have noticed the sharp increase in learning curve (something that didn't really hit me as my DRG because, ya know, as long as my hp was fine didn't pay much attention to debuffs etc) I am still not too confident in my abilities to try a raid so I will hold off on that for now.

I have had a decent success rate with most dungeons and trials, but others i have really struggled. Either the tank downed too quick, or the party just dropped as a whole before i could react. Can someone give me advice on keeping full parties up (cause sometimes the other healer just stands there or only does minor healing?) I really don't want to be one of those healers that people dread playing with as im really hoping to make this my main job.

Thanks in advance ^_^
