Before anyone just pops in and says "Wyrm Armet" I honestly do not have the time to do Dynamis because of my full-time job and soon to be family (Wife). But I haven't really seen any word on which of the two is better if they are any different at all.

I've only seen discussions on the Offensive breaths, but what I really would like to know is how much of it affects Healing Breath if it affects them at all regardless of which head I use.



or

Macro in both just like Drachen and Wyrm armet.

[Satimasu]

Saurian Helm then if you're not getting Wyrm. Wyrm is better for all breaths.

[Vyuru]

Saurian Helm:

Boost to Healing Breath: 57.75%
Boost to Offensive Breath: 10%

Wyrm Armet:

Boost to Healing Breath: 66.7%
Boost to Offensive Breath: 16% ish

Info ripped from: Healing Breath - FFXIclopedia - a Wikia Gaming wiki

If you're going to grab one of these two, macro in the Drachen Helm to activate the HB and then macro in the Wyrm/Saurian before the HB activates to receive the HB boost.

So for example:

/equip head "Drachen Armet"
/ma "Power Attack" <t>
/wait 1
/equip head "Saurian Helm"

I forget now if you need to cast first and then equip the AF or equip the AF and then cast, or if it matters.

[Tek(Selphiie)]

wait, what would macroing both in do again? (Sorry im not really good with these numbers) lol

[Ellipses]

Having the Drachen on when you cast a spell lowers your HB threshold to 50% instead of 33%. Switching to Saurian before the wyvern actually uses HB increases the amount healed by 57.75%.

[Vyuru]

Wear your AF helm in order to boost your Healing Breath activation point. Then macro in the Saurian/Wyrm Helm to boost your Healing Breath power.

Your HB threshold with the AF helm on:

Defensive Wyvern: 50%
Mixed Wyvern: 33%

Your HB threshold without the AF helm on:

Defensive Wyvern: 33%
Mixed Wyvern: 25%

The AF Helm only affects the start of your wyvern's Healing Breath, the Saurian/Wyrm Helms only affect the end of your wyvern's Healing Breath.

By doing this, you can activate your Healing Breath at 50% of your max hp, assuming defensive wyvern, and receive a 58% increase to your Healing Breath's power with the Saurian Helm equipped, or a 67% increase to the power of your wyvern's Healing Breath with the Wyrm Armet equipped.

Think of the Saurian Helm and the Wyrm Armet as an Elemental Staff for your wyvern's Healing and Offensive Breaths.

Okay i get it now that you put it that way

[Callisto]

If it helps my specific macros looked like this:

/equip head "Drachen Armet"
/wait 1
/ma "HB Trigger Spell"
/wait 3
/equip head "Wyrm Armet/Saurian Helm"

[Malacite]

Isn't /wait 3 way too long if you're using say, a barspell?

[Callisto]

It may have been 2, but it 3 works because there's a 2~ second windup on Healing Breath, and the HB animation starts when the spell fires, which is generally about a full second or so.
