    Also while it is a slight gain / safety to Swiftcast a Ruby Rite (before 86) or Slipstream, you have a bit of freedom on the order of Summon casts, so you can shift hard-cast phases as you like, leaving Swiftcast more freely to use for Resurrection at minimal DPS loss vs Verraise.

    Either way, if a RDM had to Verraise twice in a short time... then things definitely went ugly and depending on the content this may be a wipe by default, either early via presence check or late via dps check.
    To add further: if someone dies in the middle of your melee combo, 2 minute burst, or God forbid potted burst, and neither healer can get the raise for one reason or another...

    That doesn't feel good.

    ...holy smokes, we straight up call "wipe it" in P7S and P8S when it happens during 2min bursts because you lose an obscene amount of damage in that time frame. I feel you and it 100% doesn't feel good, yeah.

    Funny how we go full circle btw, this straight up leads to the problem with the 2min burst meta.
