Parties with a summoner with swift cast + raise. This is just unfair as any party with a summoner has a clearly unfair advantage. Summoner dies... healer raises... healer dies summoner raises. You can't win unless you kill both in under a minute of each other which is nearly impossible with well experienced players.
Possible Solutions:
1. Remove raise in battle from all classes other than the healer.
or
2. Allow raise as a sub skill to be used in battle so all setups can have a backup raise to make it fair.
or
3. Make raise sickness in pvp much more detrimental so that their dps or heals are significantly reduced when in raise sickness.

01-02-2014, 03:42 AMDividedSkyYour solution works in theory but its much harder to do when you are actually in game especially if you have 2 melee dps. Also, what happens when you add a second summoner to the mix and a scholar whos fairy will heal the weakened summoner instantly? Now you have three players with instant cast raise and a fairy that heals anyone that gets raised pretty much instantly if the player themselves does not. Another major problem with this is that a large portion of the player base is on PS3 and cannot use VOIP to have this type of coordination unless pre-planned.Quote:

Raise is a viable strategy and nothing more. Its anoying but when a person is revived they can be killed in
1 or 2 hits by a melee dps especially if the healer is distracted with healing other players / themself.
Pro Tip: Gladiator can swiftcast Rez too. -
01-02-2014, 09:45 AMDividedSkyGladiator cannot swiftcast rez in PVP unless he doesnt attack or get attacked the whole fight. If you equip raise from a sub class you are not allowed to use it during battle. I'v tried. Not a pro tip, sorry.Quote:

Fairy Heal is 3/4 of a Physick/Cure. It is no way close to being weak, Adlo is only 2 times more effective than a Fairy. If you can Swiftcast Raise as base class everyone will be running around with Piety materia and Swiftcast games to a stalemate.

01-02-2014, 11:33 PMBankai305Sounds like a Noob tip actually. CNJ raw Raise cannot be used during battle. Battle raise is learnt through a trait that only healers get so the PLD/GLD CANNOT raise in battle, they would have to stop attacking/being attacked to get out of battleQuote:

Topic has been brought up / beat to death in ~234029348854843 other threads. SE has already acknowledged balance issues with SMN. We just have to hope that this is one of the abilities they plan to adjust.
