Healing a pet sounds like a horrible idea...

If the mob doesn't summon, root it, save your mana healing pets and chanters.

If it does summon, get a knight or ranger to aggro it off enchanters (that's kind of their only role on a raid/in a group). Alternatively, use stuns to pull aggro/mitigate damage as a cleric since you can self heal and tank until said enchanter locks the mob down.

Every raid has downtime and you are often medding. Run up to someone, inspect them by right clicking (which may even con them for you) and check out what kind of gear they have. You'll figure out really quick who gets a remedy and who gets a complete heal.

And yes, I play 2 priests. I heal often in raids and occasionally if I group. I never found myself needing a con color indicator. I understand the need to heal here and now, but EQ really isn't a fast paced game. ESPECIALLY P99. You have time before the raid to figure out classes levels and gear quality of those you're raiding with, and if someone new or late arrives you can figure that stuff out in short order. Otherwise just Remedy til the cows come home.
