For god sake a whm can cast raise III on three people before we get another drain 2 up. Getting a temporary 500 hp boost is not justification for that ridiculous recast time. BTW Im using full recast time for all the jobs i mention...believe me a blm deosnt have to wait a full 48 secs to get off another Firaja. Drk has the longest recast timer in the game by far...and why is that and for what purpose?

BTW you are a thf...what are u doing in a drk thread?
Reading fail!

USED TO BE

Back in the day 300-500 Drain II was massive for HP. SE Zergs ran rampant, and HP over 1700 and the ability to hold hate without engaging while /NIN made you an awesome tank. This was before Cruor and Atma buffs, and back then BLMs were lucky to consistently deal 1k to the endgame mobs. I assure you there were no 5k nukes from your BLMs when Drain II was released. That HP boost would have been monstrous for SE and for tanking if it were able to be kept full time.

Comparing R3 to Drain II is retarded. Completely different spells and purposes.

That BLM is closer to his max recast than that DRK is or something is wrong.

Blue Mage says hi. Magic Hammer, 3 minute recast. New HNM spells will all share a universal 5 minute recast.

As for why I'm here? I'm an Apocalypse DRK. If you wanted to play the "you're not a real DRK, your opinion doesn't matter as much here" card then I would reconsider, because by that logic I belong here more than you.
