emergency Limit breaks

This mainly applies to the hard mode Duty finder but it often happens else where, But the amount of time i've seen a party sat on full level 3 limit break and the party close to wipe, i.e 2 pr 3 ppl up and the healer lb jobs not using it to get everybody back up.

now in dungeons i can understand cause you keep the LB bar, but on the Primal's it resets and a lost chance of a clear.

i know a few times i've managed to save a Run by popping lvl 3 lb on my brd.

so wondered if it's a common trend

Guilty here, many times I forget about LB at all. I think it's, or at least for me it is, cause healing LB is not really used in dungeons, so one tends to forget it's even there...

the animation time for healer limit makes it very hard to reliably get someone up... since I have to time your raise, not you when you accept it. It also roots me (and stops me from healing the few who are alive) which doesn't help matters very often.

If I feel i'm at a point (and the other players are) that we can complete it with fewer than a full group I probably won't healer-LB.

Ifrit is easy to time. Garuda/Titan you do it before anyone dies.

i agree titan is hard to time with tumult

Because we use them so infrequently most people forget about it.

I remember when I first running Brayflox's Longstop, at the last BOSS fight I was out of mana, one of the teammate said to me use my LB, then I realise I never put it on my hotbar...

So since then it's always sit in the corner of my third hotbar, and I still keep forgetting it...

even when 5/8 people are dead and spamming "bard/ healer LB3" over and over again?Seen that more times than I can count in ifrit and there are places there's plenty of time to cast it.

As a healer I will only use it as a very last resort. Even if the tank or second healer are dead, I would much rather a Bard used it than me. The incapacitation effect means you're stuck in one place and cannot heal; fine for a Bard, since even if it gets them killed it's no big deal, but not so great for a healer.
