Either SMN and RDM should lose their Raise or BLM should get a Raise.

I'm not arguing with your friend from Discord (who hasn't read anything that I've written on the topic of BLM much less this thread, and probably has heard a one-sided story from you about how I "don't understand the role" because I'm advocating for class/role balance), I'm posting in this thread in response to you. Feel free to invite the person to join this discussion in this if you wish, preferably after reading through the suggestions and thoughts that have been posted already, all 45 pages of them.



I am far from "hiding behind vagueness", you are just legitimately not understanding what I'm saying (note the SAM cure refute that you extrapolated "precedent" to somehow mean "BLM has no precedent for raising in other games"). It would seem that you and the others are almost deliberately misunderstanding what I'm saying, so possibly let's take a deep breath and realize that we want the same thing, really, and that is for BLM to be in a better place than its in right now. For me and many, that means not only increased damage but increased mobility and access to tools for support to compete with the other casters for static positions. Yes, those "tools" include Raise. If one is not concerned with these things (perhaps not you specifically, I just mean in general), then just let those of us who are concerned with them have our say on the matter. Casual players (again, not you specifically, but anyone that isn't attempting to do the highest end content) are not being hindered by suggestions/improvements for high-end play in any way shape or form, so why be so opposed to them?
