Sure their heals may look pretty, but the majority of electric healers i've grouped with for t1 and t2 alerts deplete their power bar at a much more noticeably faster rate than nature and sorcery healers! I don't know if it's just me, but i'd rather prefer having a nature or sorcery healer for t1 and t2 alerts because I find it easier to keep their power up lol.

could be a few things happening, but im guessing a majority of it is they are using the powers improperly and ignoring their own ability to maintain power with combos. OR they are blowing their entire load in one shot.

I am a level 15 controller, I am wondering how exactly I am supposed to restore people's powers? Thanks in advance. :V

Not sure about the 3 healers, but all players have to cooperate, use block or roll for hard hits, combine combos meanwhile healing allies, and the controller play an important part too, have critical healing also help a lot, that's why work in sp is a must for be better than the rest.

Electricity is a very costly powerset on the dps and healer side.
I have played all three healing powers and electricity cost the most by far( hopefully some of the moves cost less powers when they start patching electricity)
With electricity i use handblasters so i can regen my own power so i don't have to rely on the controller

Really? I can keep an electric healer powered up just fine. Did FOS 3 and the lowest he got was 25% power.

Mainly electric healers that are undergeared and underskilled have power problems. You'll see this a lot when running T1 and sometimes during T2 alerts when they're trying to heal an alert they have no business trying to heal. By the time you start raiding FOS this shouldn't be an issue since most players find their niche weapon to regenerate power with.
When I was a bit less geared I definitely had huge problems keeping electric healers above 25% power but now I can keep even the biggest power gluttons above half without trying. Pick up the Proto-power weapons that drop in the various FFTL alerts. Those actually help a lot in keeping your power supply healthy enough to provide constantly flows to lower members.

I finally joined a league and we don't even play with electric healers outside the league and even then we'd rather have a sorcery healer.

Lightning DPS is even worse. They're almost always sitting on an empty bar.

I don't have a problem keeping electric healers powered up, I just think they're less effective in general. Sorcery healers are they best in my opinion. The giant circle move rocks, and they don't have to keep spamming their power moves.
