Summary

• If you have a WHM in your party, but no SMN, use Healer's Roll. If the result is 7 (unlucky), swap it for Evoker's Roll.
• If you have a SMN in your party, but no WHM, use Evoker's Roll. Even if the result is a 9 (unlucky), it's probably better than what you'll get from Healer's Roll, so don't bother swapping.
• If you have both a WHM and a SMN, start with Evoker's Roll. If the result is a 9 (unlucky), swap it for Healer's Roll.
• If you have neither a WHM nor a SMN, start with Evoker's Roll. If the result is a 9 (unlucky), swap it for Healer's Roll.
