On the topic of Cure III however, I find it still has use in places like Ravana EX and Alexander [A4 to be specific], where there are places where people DO come together. Though I agree that most of the time a medica is the better option. I've had groups overgeared for Rav EX take pretty decent damage [mostly because "wut r mechanics,"] it happens sometimes [most times recently].

I find it rare when groups will wait for stoneskin, unless you are in the loading corral. I will get half way through a cast of ss2 at a boss and the tank will jump to the boss and interrupt the cast.

Swift+Stoneskin 2.

'But what if someone dies?'

Anyone that tanks the floor in the first 60s in a fight can afford to wait it out.

I only play Healers and Monk, Tanking hasn't ever interested me so I don't know the ins and outs, I only what I expect of them. But most of the time I will just Adlo or my Whm will Stoneskin our Tanks so that they can keeps dpsing, we only ever ask for them to do it if there is heavy party damage at a similar time.
