Please Fix the Raise Animation!

[Jyoeru]

The game is Final Fantasy II (IV). The boss is Zeromus. He casts Big Bang and brings my group down to emergency healing! Oh no! The DOT kills all but Cecil and Kain!! Kain uses phoenix down, Cecil casts life. Rosa is up and about to cast Cure 4 when... Big Bang again! Oh no! Everyone but Cecil is dead. Cecil uses phoenix down on Rosa, Rosa and Cecil heal. Rosa casts Life II on Rydia, who uses a phoenix down on Kain, who jumps to avoid the next attack. I have to wait 2 turns, but I finally get Edge up.

I mean... that's just how it goes sometimes. At least rezzes aren't on a 30m timer.

I have to say that sure its nice your gona fix it, but why wait till 2.1, surely that is something that could be adjusted in the hotfix?

I've witnessed a lancer die 4 times in a row from the Cutter's Cry final boss (Chimera) AoE attacks, simply because each time he is revived, he gets hit by the next AoE, either because he couldn't move yet, or because he could not start moving quickly enough (due to being stuck in the raise animation).

And that wouldn't have been a problem if the healer could heal him. But no. They can't.

The problem with just adding invulnerability is that we still don't know when we can heal him. So please just fix the healing delay and let us heal the poor soul! :3

they should add a 2-3 secs invulnerability with the ability of healers to target and heal during that short window.

so the problem of healing yourself will still exist, good job se

I think it would be helpful to add the targetted noise if you cast something on yourself.. you know that sound you hear when something targets you for the first time? if you start a cure and hear that noise, you know its going on you and not the raisee..

also, i havent tested it but would "face target" work.. ie, even though they cant be the target of a healing spell you are still on them so if you target them and heal yourself will you still look at them.. it might happen too fast but it could be a good indicator

We all want this to change but I doubt it will ever happen. This is the way SE want it to be. It had been like this in FFXI, in FFXIV 1.0 and now again in ARR 2.0. So learn to live with it.

Raising people in dragons aery (ff11) was a lot of lulz

Ps, a little tip for those struggling to get quick heals in on people being raised, if you've got 'Automatically face target when using action.' on you can simply mash your cure button whilst shuffling forward. The moment your character starts spinning to face them you are good to heal them. Can save a few seconds and quite a bit of mp!
