Rescue needs to go away.

I'm now reminded of the fact that a certain NPC in one of the role quests rescues out you of a mechanic in a manner that is far quicker and more practical (Basically the same as NIN's Shukuchi) then the awkward delayed slide the player version utilizes.

The one thing I do dislike about rescue is it will be super delayed sometimes, so it looks like you are a big jerk who rescued someone after they got blasted by an aoe. Though I am usually already targetting them so can toss a heal on them before I send them back into war.

I think Urianger uses it too in a cutscene and it is way cooler than it is for us, I think he rescues Y'shtola my memory is bad about this I may need to find a clip somewhere to refresh but I remember at the time being sad it wasn't that cool.

Edit: Oh god the scene is a very bad example Urianger uses it to grab the bad guy so Thancred can cut him down >.< At least it was an up and over, over a chasm.

Fricken Swtor rescue maaahhhh! Instant - threat reduction - defensive mitigation - annnnnnd proper physics. Up and over no problemo! Behind a wall or onto ledges tis no problem. Feel like this community would have mental breakdown if we had Swtor rescue though. Too.. expressive. Not sterile enough. Givith them that endless white void room from the Matrix, that should make them the happy.

I get healing is boring AF for some. I get that REMOVING something that has utility would be bad. I would like others to get that while the skill can be useful and helpful, not everyone enjoys that "help" and sometimes it can be downright detrimental.

Well, yup? Anytime you introduce unique skills such as these you run into this risk. Plenty of already existing skills that can be abused maliciously that I do not feel should be altered or removed. Tis annoying when it occurs but the least obtrusive fix is a barren wasteland devoid of skill expression. I will take my troll rescues and poor use of expedient as trade for Square potentially adding in more skills similar to these two. Square will not opt for elegant solution as they never do. They will use hammer, the only tool they know of and yeeeeet boy Rescue out of the game. If we are the lucky they may throw us another pity ogcd healy button that makes the HP bars go up.

That wont make them happy because than it would be TOO WHITE! It would need to be white but not too white maybe with a small bit of those sand granules they put into some paints so it has the illusion of unique. So the people with no personality selling apartments could feel like they did something new with their samey white painted walls.
