==Endgame Healing Tips and Tricks==
*Put bonus stat points into [[Mind]] - Put them in Mind to increase [[Healing Magic Potency]]. Put some points into [[Vitality]] if additional [[HP]] is needed for certain fights.
 
*Important cross-class abilities: [[Swiftcast]] ([[Thaumaturge|THM]] Level 26), [[Virus]] ([[Arcanist|ACN]] Level 12), [[Eye for an Eye]] ([[Arcanist|ACN]] Level 34) - Swift cast allows you to instantly [[Raise]] an ally. Virus is equivalent of a defensive cooldown for you tank. It helps to mitigate heavy attacks from boss. Eye for an Eye reduces the damage taken for your tank over time. It should be kept up as often as possible.
 
*Use [[Stoneskin]] on tanks before or during combat - The tanks need time in order to build enmity and Stoneskin will allow them to do just that before you need to heal them. You can also use Stoneskin on the main tank right before she takes a big hit.
 
*Overhealing = bad - Overhealing creates unnecessary aggro and wastes precious [[MP]]. Do not spam [[Medica]] or [[Medica II]] when few members of the party loses 10% of their [[HP]], unless they are about to be hit by an powerful AoE attack.
 
*Use [[Shroud of Saints]] as often as possible - Shroud of Saints regenerates MP based on your level and lowers your [[enmity]] by 50%. In some instances Shroud of Saints should be saved for specific moments such as phases with adds spawn. It helps to reduces your aggro and gives your tank an easier time in controlling the adds. To maximize MP regeneration, players should use Shroud of Saints every time their MP is 1300 below maximum.
 
*Know the range of [[Medica]] and [[Medica II]] - The range of Medica and Medica II is 15 and 20 yalms respectively. Players should run close enough to their allies for those abilities to reach them and not run too close and waste time and movement.
 
*Medica II is the best choice for AoE healing unless there is an add phase coming up in the next 30 seconds. It is more MP efficient than [[Cure III]] and [[Medica]]Let the Medica II regen go through its full duration instead of casting another AoE healing spell directly after Medica II.
 
*Recognize debuffs on party members and [[esuna]] them if needed - Debuffs appear as retangular arrow pointing downward on allies' status bars. Learn what the debuffs are for different occasions and know which ones should be removed with esuna.
 
*[[Cure I]] should be your primary heal spell and you should be keeping your tank topped off at 90-95% while letting Regen do its work on the rest. Use Cure II whenever you gain the effect of "Freecure" or if the tank goes below 50-70%. If you know a strong attack is coming, cast Stoneskin.
 
*[[Cure II]] is not your main healing spell - While Cure II is very potent, it uses a lot of MP. Spamming Cure II will quickly exhaust your MP. Use [[Cure]] as much as you can. Only use Cure II when your target is below 60% [[HP]] or when [[Freecure]] is procd.
 
*[[Cure III]] can be used as an AoE spell - Cure III will not only heal your target but also all players around your target. It is useful to heal a group of players that are not nearby you.
 
*[[Regen]] is your most MP-efficient spell and should always be re-applied on the tank whenever it is safe to do so. Of course, it is important to realize that casting regen will make you unable to cast spells on the global cooldown for around 2.5 seconds so only cast regen when it is safe to do so.
 
*Use [[Divine Seal]] as often as possible - Right before a battle or phase that requires massive healing, use the Divine Seal. [[Regen]] and [[Medica II]]'s regen stay buffed by Divine Seal as long as it is used while the caster is still buffed with Divine Seal. This also means that casting Regen then using Divine Seal will result in your current Regen NOT being buffed.
 
*Use [[Consumables|potions]] - Note that [[Mind Potion]] has same effect on Regen as Divine Seal. Be sure to cast Regen while you are buffed. Use [[ether]]s to regain MP or right after being raised to regain a lot of MP.
 
*Buffs and potions are off global cooldown - Using a buff or potion will make you unable to cast spells for the next second or so. Using buffs and potions during a time where you can't cast spells anyways will fully utilize your efficiency.
 
*Because of [[Adloquiem]] and [[Lustrate]], [[Scholar]]s are superior main tank healers. Let them heal the main tank while you heal the party member and give supplement heals to the tank as needed
