I would. I love those raids when it all falls apart, as a healer. Take spicy, over bland, any day.

I understand your desire for adrenaline, but I don't really like to be a collateral damage
I like when other people are dying funny tho.

You always have the most amusing GIFs lol.

I also need to be in those runs as a healer.... pls make me feel alive, roulette.

From experience, your best bet is to queue Dun Scaith and any of the Ivalice or Nier raids. Roulette has only given me like 3 noteworthy experiences and they were all WoD.

Rolls alliance roulette because dps in need, gets Breach. Oh my god finally something I can use my skills on! Moar buttons!

Me on MNK: Aright we got lb2, the first boss is down to 10%, and people in the other alliances are dying. May as well use it. *uses it*

My dance partner: WHO WASTED LB?!?!?!111

None of us say anything. I guess they wanted their lb3 anime finisher at 0.1%. Lb bar gets reset at the next boss anyway lmao

The sheer amount of people who sit on an LB and either never use it, try to bank it and lose it all on the next boss, or try to greed it and like you said use it when 90% of the LB is overkill is way too high.

The LB is there to be used...sooooo...

I'd love to if mine weren't useless outside of LB3 or the party nearing a wipe.

I once almost got kicked from Alliance Raid for using LB2 right on Boss Pull as a healer, for "wasting the lb"

You can be kicked from an Alliance raid? That's like extremely hard to do since the moment first boss is cleared there is always that one person who won't roll and thus people are stuck with them till the end of the run.

there is a small time frame before opening the chest, its usually most common time I got kicked.

I mean, if the boss is dead and the next pull is alliance trash then saving it for a ranged/caster LB might be more useful(but not worth complaining over). Afterall, its pulling the next boss that resets the LB bar so trash mobs dont count. Ive also been known to attempt to pull the next boss with a left-over LB. This usually fails when one of the tanks just YOLOs in and the bar is reset before the cast goes off, but ive certainly tried.

Yup, thats when i would try to kick you. If the group is bad enough to wipe to any given fight, then we get a second chance.

I used LB once in my early days in game not really knowing what it did and got screamed at in the dungeon so I took it off my bars. Then years later doing Prae (before it got changed) the tank told me to use LB to pull Nero. I had to find it an put it back on my bar to do it. Fortunately the group was kind about it.

I generally dont use it except to finish off a boss at the end of a dungeon because I really never have sorted out when its ok to use and when not. Mind you I mostly play ranged DPS.
