Misuse of magic.

I've been having a hell of a time with dps and tanks both eating mechanics in Hell's Lid that give debuffs and the only way to avoid wasting MP scraping them off the floor is to forcibly move them.

Fixed a few parts of that...at least from my experience from healing(in mentor roulette getting low level dungeons - last night it was Copperbell second boss...tank ate EVERY bomb blast, and I don't slot rescue so couldn't do much but heal them back up since keyboard died on me).

So from what I have gathered, this skill is being abused at times much like WoW's "Life Grip" that priests have. When you give something to a player that has the ability to manipulate another player or object, eventually someone is going to abuse it and use it against its intended use. Which sucks because then if it gets abused too much, then devs either nerf it or remove it all together.

Actually, in WoW, they made an item that's on the player's discretion to use called the Neural Silencer. It also deals with a lot of other disruptive things in game, like the Toy Train Set. Quite a good little solution to a widespread problem, while letting players still be....well, players.

Which they shouldn't have had to do in the first place. It just sucks that players will abuse good things and use them to cause problems in dungeons and raids.

You can't even abuse rescue. Not in anything serious or difficult anyways.

Aye. Rescue's cooldown is perhaps one of the longest of any job's oGCD cooldowns. That in itself was likely meant to be a deterrent from it being heavily abused for trolling behavior.

Me? I just hate how server ticks mess with it to the point if I don't pull someone out of something soon enough, they just rubberband themselves back and still get hit somehow.

Actually seen some video where the guy gets tossed off by titan and uses rescue to pull a player with him.

So in other words it can be used to yank others with them to their death. thok thok, savage anything that has a instant death.

Oh no, unsynced deaths.

The only people I ever troll with rescue are my friends. THEY KNOW WHAT THEY DID >:(
