Thank you, I didn't clarify that enough in my post, but yes, this is what I was touching on. The level of skill and work necessary to complete a task like that would be difficult.
I play Daphine as a doctor more than a healer. She's a physicker, she knows how to heal with the arcanum, but she's first and foremost a medic, prefering to use alchemy and more traditional 'doctoring'. Get them stable with magic, get them back for surgery. ... then follow up again the next day.
I'd be lying if I said it didn't bug me to see someone get riddled with arrows, have Daphine patch them up and then see them out starting fights again the next day. >.<
I'm waiting for someone to get mad at me when Liadan accuses them of being a barbarian for cutting someone open and then using stitches. Â >.>
Edited to Add: I forgot to add this the first time, but Liadan does use potions - with things like sugar and vitamins in them. I RP her healing as basically massively boosting the body's own regeneration abilities to close wounds, so it has to have SOMETHING to work with (calcium for bones, iron and fluids for blood, etc). As a side effect, anyone Liadan heals is incredibly hungry afterwards. xD
