At first I decided to pick

MND+4 "Cure" potency +3%
MND+2 Enhances "Fast Cast" effect (+2%)

but what about

MND+4 "Cure" potency +3%
Enhances "Fast Cast" effect (+3%)
"Blood Pact" ability delay -3

?

Would be 2 less MND but 1% more Fast Cast.. Small amount of either but I don't really see the extra MND being needed.. 1-4 being basically capped and 2 MND on C5 not gonna really change anything.. but 1% Fast Cast on almost everything..?

I don't know what WHM would cure in before Selenian Cap but I do know that MND is fairly useless on anything below Cure V...I'd personally go Fast Castx2 for 5% and just use that on every cast with whatever option you had otherwise. But I'm no WHM.

i think your best bet for a healer, is to go with the potency+3 and as much fast cast as it'll stack...i'm on your server and i see a lot of whms with the BP+ option for the 1% extra fast cast while having the potency+ as well

I'll ask our resident WHM on TAN for you, she perfers potency over anything else for maximum cures, so I'm assuming she did your first choice.

I'll probably find out tomorrow night if you don't mind waiting that long =p

Personally I go with the 6 MND, Cure Potency +5% and Fast Cast Augments. Its the Best Curing/Enhansing and MND Based Enfeeble Headpiece out there for WHM.

The fast cast choice is stupid for whm on a cure set, if you get it instead cure potency, mnd, enmity- or MP.

Same about haste, if you need to recast something faster, you already have the Walahra Turban.

As whm, you have to take the "MND+4 Cure potency +3%" option.

The other good options for whm are (not sorted) :
- Magic Accuracy+3 hMP+3 (but you can have the Mirror Tiara if you need hmp)
- Magic Damage taken -2% Enmity -4 / Magic Critical Hit Rate +10% Enmity -4 (but you can have the Raven Beret if you need enmity -)
- MND+2 Fast Cast +2%


The best combo for me is :
- MND+4 Cure potency +3%
- MND+2 Fast Cast +2%

Even if MND is more usefull on cure 5, it is still apply on other cures. It also give you a better potency on slow/para.

She uses the blood pact one, but then again she has SMN as well so... Honestly the augment add-on pieces are for you to do with as you please. Put what you want on it =p

If I was making a cure hat with it it would definitely be potency + -emnity.

2 more mnd will do next to nothing. Heck it might actually do just nothing. And well 3 fast cast is ok and all for a whm but I do long enough fights often enough where I pull hate so yeah emnity nice

From my notes:
Quote:
MKE (for WHM)-
Selenian Cap
DEF: 19 MP+20 "Conserve MP"+3
Augments:
MND+4 "Cure" potency +3%
MND+2 Enhances "Fast Cast" effect (+2%)

ASA (for WHM)-
Tatsumaki Sitagoromo
DEF: +31 INT +2 MND +2 CHR +2
Augments:
Cure Potency+5%
MP+25 Enmity-4

Edit: For perspective, this is the set I'm shooting for:


Notes on itemset:

This set isn't for pure cure numbers.
Selenian Cap: MND+6, Cure Potency +3%, Fast Cast
Tatsumaki Sitagoromo: Cure Potency +5%, mp+25, enm-4
Teiwaz: Cure Potency +15%
No Magnetic earring due to choosing ethereal earring. (35% cure potency total)

It's because you are rdm, so you only have 1 cure set, for normal and long fight.

As whm you should have 2 cure set, one for long fight (with max enmity - > cure potency > MP > other) one for normal fight (with cure potency > mnd > MP > other).

For long fight, this hat is mediocre in term of enmity (when you can have -8 from Hydra Beret/Raven Beret or -7 from Mirror Tiara)

That why the enmty - choice is not good here. I would take the fast cast + mnd to go with the cure potency.
