Best time to get that Good Samaritan title.

Yep. I main Samurai, but have played nothing but RDM since level 3. Sometimes on the harder fates (Fafnir, Cyclops) I get a couple shots in, hide and just rez people after the mass slaughter. That is, if the game didn't de-render them and prevent me from targeting their body.

After seeing Savage threads on how you're bad if you kill your DPS (And your mana pool) by Curing and Raising people, I love switching from DPS to emergency healer in Eureka and people being thankful for that.

I'm actually quite torn in which to main, Samurai or Red Mage. For now, I use Samurai for dungeons & Raids and I use Red Mage for Eureka. I have been raising a ton of people and already went up the achievement ladder and getting closer for Good Samaritan. The party I'm usually on has mostly casters as well.

My Red mage is currently living in Eureka to get my DRG weapon and gear. Will decide once I get 19/20 and get feathers and see how much longer it would take to gear the RDM. I really don't enjoy it there.

Yes, and I love it. Can confirm I went from 0% progress on any of the Good Samaritan achievements to 114/200 for Good Samaritan V in less than a week. Eureka has definitely reinforced my love for RDM's versatility. Against NMs many levels higher than me, which I'd do no damage to, I've instead been reviving people left and right. It's great to be able to fill two distinct roles so well and a great feeling to be able to help out those poor people who get merked in the middle of nowhere without a party.

YUP! When I join NM groups and they go to the high lvled ones that will murder me in one hit, I just sit back and watch to see how many ppl get slaughtered on the battlefield. If my teammates or someone close by dies, I verraise them with quick speed before the healers in my team could complete their cast for raise/resurrection.
However, I do salute the generous medic players that use their raises for low lvls like me (currently at Lv10); they could've easily ignore us because we don't have any business there from the get go, but they still rescue us from losing those experience points XD -

It is not just Eureka but pretty much all content. I mean i do not mind now and then but when you are needing to raise the same healers multiple times in the same fight.. well.
People do not even leave comms so serious question do some healers take offence perhaps to Red Mages raising? -
03-20-2018, 02:51 AMShoukoIf they do they're stupid, WHM/AST/SCH should be focusing on healing rather than raising due to the way it eats up your mana, RDM on the other hand is a perfect way to use as a "field medic" since they can heal and instant raise until they have no mana left, then refresh and get some MP back.Quote:

This is the exact reason why you should go in as rdm if you are gonna go as a dps
-
03-20-2018, 04:27 AMFredco191I do that too. So I can not only get that achievement but also good karma. If I die on my way to an NM people might remember that I raised them and raise me in return!Quote:
