    WHM running out of mana

    Hello fellow healers,

    Question for the community:
    On my WHM (TiTan fight) i am running OOM at 30% of the bosses HP left. Is this happening to anyone else or do i need to start stacking MP? I have put all my attributes in MIND up untill now.

    Fight Tactics:
    Protect and Stoneskin all before pull. Cure untill group takes 2 AOE hits then AOE heal, use Cure II on free heal, repeat.

    Thank you in advance. (mostly looking at you WHM as the SCH have Mana Regen abilities)

    I can't say 100% for myself since I had a Bard in my group, although your strat for healing seems fine, just make sure you aren't over healing at all; that will be your biggest downfall for wasted mana. From what I hear Regen makes titan even easier.

    Once you get Regen, you'll make up tactics to save MP.
    At lv 38 you get shroud of saints, this has a restore MP effect, so make sure it is always on CD is you need MP.
    Your at an awkward level at the moment for a WHM, but try not to over heal and you'll be fine.
    When you get a Bard in your group ask for a Mage Ballad song.

    Easy solution. Use Ether!

    60 mp for ether, 120 mp for super Ether, for WHM lvl 40 :
    Heal cost 65 mp, same the the super heal a little more than 120 mp.
    So ehter is not the easy solution with this high cooldown

    I have this problem mostly when the tank is a WAR. It always feels like they have no defense and I have to pound out Cure II as fast as the game will allow or they die, and then I'm clear out of MP in a minute. The item timers are horrendous; I have a stack of Hi-Ethers, but it barely means anything.

    Having a bard with Mage's Ballad though is pretty nice. Only way I've been able to beat Titan.

    Medica uses a lot of MP, maybe switch to fast healing with Cure I instead? I usually fast heal the group with Cure I instead of Medica (I only use Medica in emergencies cause of the MP cost), but your spell speed should be high enough that you can dish out Cure extremely quickly.

    Pay closer attention to the MP cost and try to use the less MP hungry abilities maybe? You should have a high enough Mind stat that the lower Cure shouldn't be bad.

    This could be heavily related your DPS. The fight should be over by the time you have used 2/3's of your mp at least. When I did the story version it was with my FC and I barely put a dent in my mana bar. This isn't necessarily your fault.

    I'll pretty much just echo what has been said already about the weird in-between level where you run out of mana a lot. Once you get regen and then shroud of saints the MP issues are much alleviated. I think you can have regen for the titan fight, so if you're having trouble you could try waiting until you have regen. Ethers can help a little, but at that level, definitely go for hi-ether and the only thing I would say about ethers is that if you use one rather early in the fight, once you've used 200MP or so, the recharge might have completed by the time you need to use it again.

    Your general strategy seems correct though.
