"Who do you rez?"

When I have the ability to res:

1. Healer
2. Tank
3. DPS that can res
4. Whoever I click on first(melee DPS if the boss is at less than 10% HP as we can usually finish it without worry - NOTE this works mostly only in dungeons as raid/trial bosses can still easily wipe you)

1. Tanks to reestablish defense/hate.
2. Healer to continue backing up/main healing.
3. SMN/RDM because of their ability to raise and save myself and other healer MP.
4. BRD/MCH so main party has someone who can restore MP/TP when needed. Especially for the Tanks and Healers.
5. All others go last because they are an after thought compared to the rest above unless they are the only ones left to raise for some reason.

My priority:
- Main tank if dead
- co-healer
- Rezmage/SMN
- The rest

Priority:
-Main tank
-Co-healer
-Other tank
-Red Mage/SMN
-The DPS who aren't constantly standing in the bad.
-Maybe the ones who have died five times. Maybe. Depends if they're learning or if leaving them down is better on MP management.

I don't play a healer but as a SMN my priority is similar:
- No tank rez MT
- Healer/healers
- Off tank
- SMN/Red Mage
- Remaining DPS I usually leave to the healers

Why would you raise a summoner? Most of the time, they don't have the MP to raise someone else when they're done summoning their pet again.

I'll raise (the hell is rez?) whoever is going to contribute the most in the next few moments.

Summoning a pet is only 1200 MP. Aetherflow gives back 10% of maximum MP. MP also rebuilds at a reasonable pace. I usually have enough to raise someone pretty quickly after being raised myself. If there is a need to raise and Swiftcast is up I do that before summoning my pet. Should a Red Mage be prioritized over a SMN maybe as they can throw heals too. The thing is having a player up who can raise is a safety net for the healers and in many cases that is more important than the lost damage due to dead DPS only players.

It depends on the situation normally as a SMN...
1. Healers unless both tanks are dead
2. Then whatever class can Rez or BRD/MCH if MP for both healers are bottomed out
3. Everybody else for everyone else I prioritize range dps for some kind of Mana gain for healers then melee dps
But it's so dependent on the situation

Why would you kick BLM to the bottom? Give us like 5 seconds and we can Mana Shift you a pile of MP as thanks.
