So, you mages....

Whats the story with your heals and raises? Do you guys not have them on your bar or are you just not interested in healing or raising people?

Enlighten me:)

My Summoner has Resurrection on its Shift Hotbar. I always try and use it if the healers aren't available. (I also have swiftcast too.) On my Server of Ragnarok, people who die out in the open world usually immediately use return because they want the resurrect acheive for themselves, but don't want others to get it.

BLM can't have Raise / Resurrect.

SMN can raise people, which is highly useful. As a SMN, I always have it close to me. The healing for both classes, I mean BLM and SMN, are kinda lame and they're like a "desperate maneuver" if the healer DIES and you need to buy some time. Skills that are a must for these classes, imo, are eye for an eye and virus. They help to support the healer and help the tank to mitigate damage. Being DPS doesn't mean that you ONLY have to nuke stuff, if you have support skills that can save the party, improve its performance, enhace its survivability and avoid a wipe: Use them.

Indeed. Archers often forget that if they go too far out of the conial field of view, mages can't do anything (Especially BLMs.) Heals still work regardless unless the person dies, but kiting mobs around in circles is silly.

In what circumstance? If I'm in a hunt & you're not in my party, you are SOL until it's dead.

I do like to engage in the mass resurrection after Odin though :) So many bodies...

If I'm playing on a healer, and the bard/archer has died due to pulling aggro and running around instead of taking the mobs to the tank, i'm not wasting the MP. You lay there and think about what you did wrong.

Acting less smug will raise your chances in me keeping you alive.

If I have to heal as a black mage, you're doing it wrong. O.o
