    Yes. It'd be one thing if the computer moved you away or did something to get you away from harm (see: tool assisted runs for console games). All DBM and Big Wigs does is warn you in a noticeable way. It's up to you to still react and do whats needed to not die.

    Going to the Twintania example, yes, it'd be really useful to have an addon like that warn you on divebombs, with the ability to set it to send a raid warning when someone is in conflag, who is tethered to dreadknights and so on. Sometimes you don't have the time to scan the whole battlefield, and if you're like me you're not coming near the mic to say anything on chat because you're too busy trying to not die.

    Not mentioning some of the memory game fights (turn 9 comes to mind) would be more manageable. In before "it took me a million wipes to learn T9 so it has to take EVERYONE a million wipes!!!!!1!one".

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.
    * Design ideas:
