/rest <Can I have it?> <Do you need it?>

[Jennestia]

And you wonder where all the black mages went in XP parties post-ToAU in FFXI? Resting relegated them to the dust bin. We don't need resting. We don't want resting. There are better ways to handle MP recovery. Resting makes nukers useless in a dungeon crawling world.

May want to clarify on this before more false info is spread about XIV's older successful brother -

ToAU was the era of TP-burns, for two reasons:

1. Mobs resisted magic, heavily with the exception of Flans, which were melee resistant.

2. People figured it to be faster to get a BRD/WHM or COR/WHM (ugh) and 5 Melees and just destroy mobs.

It had absolutely zero to do with mana regeneration, it had to do with using nukers was inefficient in most of ToAU spots because it was Square's counter to manaburns post CoP.
