Dunno about you but I've had enough occasions in leveling dungeons paired with healers that can't get a grasp on "don't stand in red" that riot blade + cure is what got the group through to a victory
That I consider it a cross-class slot well filled
Ah, never had healers that bad. Only ever used when solo if chocobo was slacking.
As for comment about Active Help, don't think it would help much. Half the questions I see in Novice Network were answered by AH, but people turn it off after first message and never see any future ones.
I did a solo Cutter's Cry Chimera on PLD once while leveling (rest of the group left, never refilled) by means of Cure between Chimera casts and a fair bit of Riot Blade, but even then I can't say I don't find it lacking. Were it merely to scale with physical weapon damage instead (or if the physical/magical damage distinction was removed, and caster strength just nerfed a bit if we really find caster auto-attacks that fearsome and overpowered), that'd be a huge boon, and maybe make it worth taking as a efficient alternative to Clemency when you absolutely cannot attack and the ally doesn't have enough health for Stoneskin to pay off.
