*Raise* Issues with animation time

Stop dying.

You're not suppose to be rewarded or treated special with a nice "immunity for a few seconds" after a raise. Be smart about how and when you send out raises and accept them. Making things easier isn't always the answer. There is hardly any death penalty as it is.

So you never died in dungeons? genius.

What point are you trying to make? I don't think he/she ever claimed not to die, only that if they died, they screwed up and accept their mistake. FFXIV is incredibly lenient on death. You can rez all day and it doesn't matter. Most MMOs either severely restrict in-combat resurrection or disallow it completely. Why? Because it's more challenging. It makes people have to play correctly and not screw up and thus get better.

I agree that placement and timing should be challenging players, but currently the feature is disappointing. Insta-raise make things better too, undoubtedly. But I think the point is that, as it stands, battle raise is pretty much useless, too random to be reliable. One can see it as a "very mild chance to actually be useful", and considering repair costs, one might as well not even try to raise (or not accept it). The point is that SE should either make battle raise actually usable or just disable the feature. Also the fact that you can take damage but not heals is rather frustrating, not to say outright illogical.
