Healer dps with no mana

[Kukulumi]

Hello,

I am leveling a conjurer and just did a fate as lvl 14.

I did only dps, because someone else also was there.

Just before the fate boss died i had no mana left.

So, my question is how are healers supposed to do dps, when dps spells cost mana? I can imagine there must be a alot of iddle time standing still and doing nothing?

Somebody correct me if im wrong.

Until you get cnj to 24 you will have access to lucid dreaming that will help cushion some of the mp drain.

the more you lv up the better your mana economy will be, in fact is difficult for White mage ( evolution of conjurer) to have mana problems at high levels.

Bear in mind you're still low level without access to many of your skills. If MP is a concern, your MP management will greatly increase if you continue CNJ and bring it into WHM. MP management is still a part of the game and it is part of playing a mage, but it doesn't take long once you're out of a fight for your MP to go back up. It may be worth carrying some ethers if you're finding it's slowing you down until you get Lucid Dreaming at 24.

Then you'll start picking up some oGCD's that don't cost any MP. Assize which gives you free MP. Thin Air, which allows you to cast stuff without using MP.

For most low level group content, the encounter will be over before MP is an issue, and then MP regenerates fast outside of combat. FATEs are really the only low level content that lasts a while. By the time you're reaching content that lasts long enough for it to be an issue (trials, raids, etc), you'll have the tools to take care of it... and most of them have points where nothing can be done, essentially allowing you to regenerate MP.
