Now I will say that I am not very versed in White Mages, beyond the very RP unfriendly nature of the job as it is stated that there are no WM in the world other then the player character.
Now the conjurer I know a bit more about through research for an NPC in my character's storyline. As I understand it, conjurers take on a symbiotic relationship with the Elementals, and nature itself. Now the intensity of this relationship varies from conjurer to conjurer. Some may be mediocre and feel next to nothing beyond a light sense, while others would be attuned to all life in the vain of a Jedi or Zen Roshi.
As for combat I once knew a guy that ran that way and he played like he did not fight at all, but rather nature itself rose to defend him. That was his way and I thought it wonderful, but you could play it anyway really.
As harsh as it is to play a white mage lore-wise, it is very flexible to play a conjurer.
