How To Train Your Solitary Healing Unit

In Fire Emblem Awakening there are many classes to choose from that allow each unit to specialize in certain types of weaponry and abuse certain skills that can be very helpful on the battlefield. Units use their weapons to gain experience and increase their weapon rank which in turn allows them to use better weapons. Healing is itself categorized as a weapon type and in most cases is able to be used in conjunction with another type of offensive weapon. Two classes however, the Cleric/ Priest and Troubadour do not have that option and are relegated to healing alone. While healing is very useful, it does not give very much experience and is not needed in every situation making such solitary healing units defenseless and more of a burden in a lot of cases. Cleric/ Priest and Troubadour are base classes which means they can promote to a better option at level 10, getting them there can be kind of a pain, but I finally figured out a method to do so without taking the entire campaign to get there.

Why Won't You Stay Away From the Things That Will Kill You Horribly?

I think we can all agree that A/I in games can be one of it's most frustrating aspects.

I could use numerous different games as examples, but today I will be using Fire Emblem Awakening as it is what prompted me to write this.
