    Phoenix Down says, "I suck"

    Seriously one of the most used item in FF history has, like no use at all in this game. What Phoenix Down need, is to be able to use on non-party players, so if I find some random dead guy in the world somewhere, I can use that dusty phoenix down and rez the player.

    The fact they're unique is also questionable. I can only hold one, but never have a chance to use it.

    They can be used for half failed sac pulls. Healer picked up threat but managed to get to the end. Dies. DPS can pop the Phoenix Down instead of having to redo the pull. It's very niche but it's there.

    It still doesn't change the fact that it is more useless than even potions in this game.

    People use potions all the time in end game. If you want to do max dps you use them for sure.

    Oh, I know that potions can be useful, this is why I said that Phoenix Downs are even less useful than potions, because really, only in end game are they really utilized, yet still have their purpose. PDs do not.

    I don't want to say too much here, but if I was balding, I wouldn't want adventurers stockpiling my loose hairs and throwing them around every 5 minutes. You've got to cherish what you've got left.

    I keep hoping it'll be used in a housing recipe for a Phoenix lamp or something

    Potions are also nice to have as a healer, especially a white mage. Mega-Ethers, X-Ethers the extra MP is always welcome.

    If they don't want to take away the Phoenix Down unique status, make it so having one in your inventory functions as a one-time reraise. At least make it semi-useful.
