So strategies formed around exploits have become acceptable? Really?

What I don't understand is, why are they taking so long to fix Medica II. It's something that's obviously not working as intended and that you could very well do by accident (in Titan, for example, as WHMs tend to use Medica IIs there and if someone is raised at the same time they may remove the weakness). I myself sent a report of this weeks ago when I first found out about it.

Why is this here and not in the bug report area of the forums where it might get looked at by SE devs and not us? I don't see talking about it here to be of the same importance as posting it in a bug thread. Please don't feed this thread and please post it in the bug forums where it truly belongs.

When a bug is so huge and people are relying on it to clear content + it's getting ignored since this has apparently been well know for months now does not get fixed: sometimes it's better to spam it on a main page to let EVERYONE know about it. Perhaps then it might get looked at....or so my theory goes...

Res-debuff is supposed to teach you to...avoid things, play right, and not DIE.

I'm not taking sides on the issue (I'm still looking for a party for turn 1!), but I have to call you out on this: you may be right, you may be wrong, but too many people bring fire and brimstone to the forums concerning what things are "supposed" to do. I'm sorry, unless you were actually on the dev team, or you have a direct line to YoshiP and asked him yourself, you simply don't know what things are "supposed" to do until they make an official statement on it. I may be wrong, but I don't remember hearing any official explanation of the resurrection sickness aside from that it simply is.

When a bug is so huge and people are relying on it to clear content...

Just a comment to further this: if people have to rely on the bug to clear the content, the content shouldn't be in release. SE went retard mode releasing Coil before Crystal Tower, it's as simple as that.

Or maybe there's nothing wrong with the content and those players are simply bad at the game?

It's not only Medica II. I have accidentally done it with Medica, and seen a few Scholars do it with whatever their aoe heal thing is.

If they're simply bad at the game, then I guess everyone is bad at the game, since no one has technically cleared turn 5.

"I'm sorry, unless you were actually on the dev team, or you have a direct line to YoshiP and asked him yourself, you simply don't know what things are "supposed" to do until they make an official statement on it." ~ As to this, I'm sorry, but if I recall correctly it doesn't work unless you use it immediately after you rez them. If you don't, then it doesn't work. There is no information on it ingame as to how this is supposed to work in this way, so its actually a bug. If it is supposed to be dispellable, then Esuna would be able to get rid of it no?

But that's just it, this isn't even the hard part of the fight and it's been cleared without exploits multiple times by countless FCs.

I've seen streams where people die on nodes in turn 2 and exploit this while reaching ADS with 5 clicks left. The chances of them dying would have been greater (as it should be) if they engaged while weakended, but if they stopped to wait for it to wear off they'd run the risk of timing out. Instead, they're able to keep on trucking despite their deaths and receive absolutely no penalty for it. And we all know turn 2 doesn't require any exploits to clear..

One bug/exploit that I see people trying to enforce on others is the healing exploit/bug in AK. If your healer climbs the tree on the first boss and heals you from there and none of the DD/Tank touches the adds, they'll aggro the healer, but can't touch them. If I'm healing in AK I just ignore them or tell them (No, Thanks.) and if I'm DDing, I just tell them I don't want to take part of something that could possibly get anyone banned. Wish SE would clarify more on some of these, and yes I've seen them already in the bug section.

Its not really high priority. Ppl who die all the time will still die all the time, rez sickness or not. It can't actually help you win.
