Raise/Ressurect too low

[Serio]

You still get Raise II at rank 38, so I don't see what the big deal is. So, it's not like your hard work would be for nothing.

I think the bigger issue here is that many of those who consider SE to be God stuck around thinking that there will be a special pot of gold at the rainbow for them and they will be rewarded for their undying loyalty. Many of them expected they going to be able to poke fingers at the new players and say "see I got everything and you got nothing!" and now it's looking like the people who will start from scratch will probably have a better experience than they did.

I sure hope they do, or this community will never grow larger...

^ :P If the game isn't tons better for new players joining at the ps3 release, all this work would have been for naught

kind of depends what pple are hoping for in XIV.
A good majority of the WoW generation had a hard time keeping up with the old FFXI (in the old days).
FF attracts pple that are a class of their own. These are the pple that have no problem with a higher hurdle just as long as the officially released game does not play like a freaking 1year open beta

Yes but alot of FFXI players think that pointless hurdles and difficult content are the same thing. Things like exp loss when you die is a pointless hurdle but they will argue the idea came from Jesus himself.

[Evangela]

they said they try to make the classes more uniqueness

so they should lock the Raise and Resurrect to CON/THM

and implement Phoenix Down like I said in the post before

[Firon]

Having phoenix downs would be cool but balancing that would be a chore i bet they have to think about how many you can hold, how fast you can use, etc.

[Cichy]

Implementing Phoenix Down:
- nice item to have for dungeons and everything else (just put 10 min reuse timer)
- gives alchemists means for profit
- gives gatherers maybe means for profit

Seems like a fantastic idea to me.

[Laughlyn]

i could live with a CD on the use of "Phoenix Downs" playing as healer.
(if it has the ability to resurrect me if i should happen to die)

Or the point of having them will be useless, might aswell equip Raise or bring an actual Healer with you.

And i mean like this:

In games where only one character is controlled, such as Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII- and Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII-, instead of reviving a fallen character, the Phoenix Down casts Reraise on the player.
