Tales from Duty Finder: Some make you laugh, some make you cry. Let's vent. 2.0

Tfw you spend a whole raid playing res roulette while being insulted by the dragoon and the other DPS for not raising faster... and then at the very end they all shower the RDM with praise. I'm sorry that my co-healer died 8+ times and we couldn't raise you faster but wow, really?

People expect to do no mechanics and just have healers sit there ressing and healing them the whole time. Its absurd. We can do damage too if people make an effort to do mechanics. It also funny that this behaviour is more in casual content then higher end content like savages and ultimates. You would think it would be the opposite where ppl would die more in harder stuff not mechanics with simple obvious tells or ones where you can just follow the group. People need to stop wanting to be carried.

Sooooo...I was part of the reason why my 3-man party wiped on floor 95 of HoH. I got greedy after our tank died to a luring trap and went after a chest in a treasure room, got aggro as rdm, died after raising the whm, and both our drk and whm ate dirt. We didn't get lucky enough to get another reraising pom.

Hamster wanted her cheeks stuffed full of loot, hamster paid the price.

Unlike RDM, healers can't just auto-cast with Dualcast. We have to wait for our swiftcast to pop again, or spend 7.56s hoping no important mechanics will go off in order to raise, all while trying to heal others who aren't dead, and maintain our MP. Most DPS are braindead and will just never get it.

I don't think Verraise is affected by Dualcast. On the other end of the spectrum, Lightspeed can't affect Ascend either.

Wrong and wrong. With dualcast RDM is rez machine, and Lightspeed do affect rez spell.

this. but regardless of lightspeed affecting a rez spell, DPS need to focus on dodging mechanics instead of complaining about being rezzed fast enuf

Huh, okay then. Something to try today.

Yeah, but the thing is the RDM was laying dead with the other DPS most of the time. They were priority for raise because they can raise others much quicker with dualcast, but half the time I'd raise the RDM they'd literally die 5 seconds later after raising one other person. Like I'd at least understand if the RDM was doing something, but part of why I was so upset was because they weren't.

In case you aren't aware, Verraise has a cost of 2400 MP, same as every healers rez. You are revived with 2000 MP. Immediately after being revived RDM can do about... one rez. Shocking, I know.

RDM chain rez really isn't a magical solution to parties' general incompetance.
