(the other nice thing about clerics!)

Healing your buddy to full every time he takes dmg is a great way to burn through your spells in the first combat of the day especially at low lvls. The vigor spells are on your spell list so consider picking up a wand of lesser vigor as soon as possible to get your party members back to full quickly after combat ends. A couple scrolls of it work well at lower lvls. Summary: Prepare buff spells you can always switch one for a cure if you really need it. Have wands for out of combat healing to save on spells. Buff before combat if at all possible. Hit the enemy if you can spare the actions.
