In that case it was the healer's fault not yours so you framing it as *you* causing the wipe is silly. SC1 leylines and bonds leylines really don't require that much effort to accommodate and I feel like the main reason people are so unwilling to cooperate with BLMs is because there's a bit of simmering resentment that they aren't playing a job that can fix other people's mistakes. No caster should have a raise. If anything the "caster" res should be a long cooldown ogcd skill that you have to apply before a player takes lethal damage, like excog but it still applies weakness, but even then I only think that's appropriate for smn with their phoenix kit. I also think blms should be shifted into taking a melee spot by default because this solves so many of their uptime/movement problems. I admit I always get a real smug sense of satisfaction if I get a dnc partner in content but at optimal play it really is better used on other classes for all the reasons Alex said. Constant goalpost moving and pretending all the concern is about helping new and less confident Blm players and then lo' and behold the issue is actually just pure insecurity because no one will dance with you.
