Where is my Phoenix Down?!

[Jamesruglia]

A Phoenix Down to raise others would be an interesting item, especially now that most people don't seem to care what raise they get as Abyssea will shower them with more~

[Vangoh]

It's good to see more people support this idea...too much negativity at the start..

Ok, didn't see the answer so I'll post it now.

Why are there no Phoenix Downs in FFXI? There's no Phoenix.

[Haldarn]

There's no Phoenix.

So I guess you didn't play through Chains of Promathia then?

If you can't handle COP, I can solo it on BST for you.

So I was wondering why would this be the only (I don't know about FFXIV) FF that doesn't have phoenix downs?! How many times have you found yourself with a buddy and neither of you got the ability to raise each other? Wouldn't it be nice if we could use a phoenix down on other people?

And while we're on the subject, we should be able to use beneficial items on others too!

----------------

Suggestion: Phoenix Down (Key Item)

Obtained: 2.5k - 15k Gil via Signet NPC in respective main city ONLY
(however "certain" Altana based NPC's like the ones in san d'oria could instead issue this,
where-ever located & claim the proceeds would go to their church or home nation perhaps?).

Effect: After a certain amount of time (no sooner than 5 min but no longer than 30min) an
option to use this key item will display the option to have raise cast upon you from the
heavens (something like "The light of Altana shines upon you" would display once yes is
chosen and then a raise prompt would follow like normal.

Side Effects: Double Weakness & unable to cast reraise upon oneself for the same amount of
time the key item was set to (to avoid SE rejecting the idea on grounds of potential "abuse" or
some type of complaint that it'd offset something).

Notes: If said person invokes the use of the item but does not actually raise him/herself the
key item would revert to be used again later (to avoid people complaining about losses for
whatever reason). Also the key item could only be bought no more than 1-3x per real life day?
(to support SE not rejecting this idea further and also lastly the concept of 3x per real life day
might be enhance-able via quests? instead of the 1x per real life day).

PS: You can find this on my main thread here.

We may not have downs, but we do have Pinions and Feathers.

[Tsukino_Kaji]

You have to kill baby pheonixes to get down. Get to it.
