It's more useless for pawns. I still prefer a mage over healing items though. Saves backpack space and having to find/buy/create them in the first place. I use healing items only in a pinch.

On the other hand, at level 200 with full level 3 rarified equipment it is extremely hard to die because of the low amount of damage you receive. It may be ok to use healing items instead.
