BLM Raise.

[BasicBlake]

Black Mage does too much damage to be allowed to have a Rez.

Not every class needs a raise just like every class does not need a dot.

Resurrection-jutsu for my Nin or i'll fite you.

Not everyone needs a raise lol.

They aren't wrong though. Summoner deals more damage on a given average while having utility in both Devotion and Raise. It's also by far the most mobile of all three Casters.

Give Bard a raise while you're at it, so I can resurrect people with my angelic singing voice. I've been told I sound like a combination of Fergie and Jesus.

Oh, man, you really got me.
Too bad SMN is still too strong to be bringing both a raise, a party wide buff, freebie heals, and a multitude of instant casts.
And no, Pet clunk, ghosted actions, or any other issues doesn't justify it's current position.

If a bad job design would justify bonker DPS, Monk would be above the skies.

To remain on the topic, no, BLM doesn't need raise.
If RDM and SMN can cast a raise, that's because they can cast white magic aswell as black magic. From all the FF point, Yuna, Eiko, Garnet, Rydia... Sometimes one, sometimes the other, sometimes both...
Design wise, BLM technically has infinite MP and triple instant cast. That combo would be stronger than RDM who just runs out of MP after triple raising.

It's almost like DPS raises should have a high cooldown or something and be thrown into the role section.

Anyone who has had to wait for Angel's Whisper to come off cooldown can point out why this sucks.

BLM doesn't need a Raise. Honestly, they could probably Solo most things in the game if you gave them back Drain so HP ceases to be a problem because their DPS would be healing. Throw in Erase too while you're at it and they don't need Esuna.
