Mostly I use tactics, like standing behind Harry in part 5 which means I take less melee hits, and pulling out before the blades and using Many Shot with a Holy of Pure Good bow instead of staying to long and getting chewed up. The reason I don't notice the low HP is because I generally am not the one holding the agro in the quests and raids and tend not to need much healing. Stick in tight and the cleric drops a Mass Cure and that will usually do it. No more SP being used than normal considering that they usually are already using that spell. Low attributes can be overcome with tactics.
To a degree. Take part 4 and 5 of the Shroud. Healing is usually determined by the lowest HP total. So if you have 100 hp less than all the other melees, then you, all by your lonesome, are causing the cleric to use sp at a higher rate.

Now.. usually there's someone under 300 hp, so it's probably not the case.

Standing behind Harry is a valid strategy in part 5 as well. My pure rogue employs it as well (about 375 hp). But.. one thing to keep in mind is that you need 3-4 static people to 'hold' him in. Those guys can't simply shift because they happen to have aggro, or Harry could run off. So while it may be a totally valid strategy to stay behind Harry... it's only made valid by those 450-550 hp guys that are taking the brunt for ya.
