Okay, first off, my character is in Cerberus, but I'm stepping in for my sister, who's on Bismarck.
At this very moment, my sister is in King Ranperre's Tomb, lvl 56 PLD, leveling with a party consisting of a PLD, 2 DRKS, a SMN/WHM, BLM, and MNK. Because a lack of any decent healers, the SMN is assigned the job of healer. Who's this healer? Chanhuan. Both my sister and I agree, never expect her to do much.
1) She hasn't pulled out any of her Avatars to give buffs to the party, not once!
2) The only buff she *has* given, is Protect, and maybe one Haste.
3) The BLM is trying to keep my sister's HP outta the red all the time, because only on occasion does Chanhuan bother to give my sister a Cure III.
4) When my sister did get in the red, she tossed a Regen at my sister... Like that is going to help when my sister has 300 HP and fighting a Bat that can do Jet Stream.
5) Everyone in the party is getting on her case for being the crappiest mage ever. She even asked before they fought, if she could sub NIN, (obviously to get outta healing duties).
6) A quote from this SMN: "If I get aggro [During a fight], I'm zoning!"
7) The only summoning of avatars she has done, is Leviathan, at the tail end of the battle... but by the time she pulls him out, the mob is dead, and he just wasted some of her MP she could have used for buffs/healing.
8) (as the party progresses, my sister and I have more things to complain about). Half the party has gone AFK for smoke breaks. My sister asked why she was running back and forth, she said out loud, in party chat, "train mobs".
9) (more to add!) Chanhuan just asked the puller, one of the 2 DRKs, "Why you come back with half HP?". Well Geee, I don't think his job says 'THF/NIN' now does it? Again, she comments, "Keep distance from mobs".
Chanhuan, the 56 SMN/WHM, should NOT BE INVITED if you intend her to be the main healer. NEVER invite her. She's stubborn and lazy!
I'll second that. Chanhuan invited me to a party in KRT when I was a 53 RNG.
Now, going to KRT as a RNG at 53-58 is great. Wonderful exp, etc. The party setup for this was less than desireable, however. We had a 54 PLD without her AF gloves and wearing level 45 armor on her hands and legs, a RNG (who had decent equip), a BLM who randomly nuked with Freeze, a RDM (who was actually quite good, Chaosmage IIRC), and Chanhuan, the SMN. Chanhuan insisted that we didn't need a WHM and that she was enough, as she "had a level 60 RNG and 60 THF and blahblahblah."
Apparently not.
I stayed in the party long enough to ding 54 (because I just wanted my AF hat ; ;) then left. Immediately upon dinging she asked, "nice hat, how much was it?" o.O;;;
Yeah. For sure someone to stay away from.
