I disagree with this~ If anything THM is more useful for PUGs simply because of the other people that wipe...

In a situation: Oh great, i'm the only ranged alive... Shit i'm on BLM! Well, guess one of the WHM is going to have to raise... Damn it! the other WHM let the tank die >_<"

It happens ALL the time in PUGs and going BLM is only acceptable when someone else can handle backpacking the newer players in the fight. When it comes down to it, DPS is the only thing that matters in ifrit... Dead BLMs don't = DPS and only experienced players should go BLM. Far too often I see new players going BLM just to die, waste a raise and die again.
