If you are bothered by a raise macro at all, you need to stop and rethink life

Couldn't it go the other way around as well?

If you knowingly insult people on the regular, you need to stop and rethink life.

If you think having fun/being funny involves the expense of others, you need to stop and rethink life.

there is a question that you should answer

Why do you have to use a text macro to rez ?

Pressing the skill(s) is enough and as mentioned by the time you press the macro and then the skills, your co-healer ( if any) has already send out the rez so you are purposedly losing time when rez just because you want to sound interesting or to make a show off.

Might want to rethink a bit why you do some stuff and if it is really relevant as I see it, no macro is relevant unless it serves the group purpose and a rez macro funny or not doesnt at all. Just me though

And the whole point of a raise macro is generally so someone else doesn't start raising the same person. Raise macros are one of the few macros you should have.

Raise macros are extremely helpful when doing any content with more than 1 healer.
When more than 1 person is dead, we need to know who is going to raise who, especially when one of those people has Swiftcast on cooldown.

Even WITH a Raise macro, I sometimes encounter a healer who will use their swiftcast to raise the person who I am raising without swiftcast, when my cast is almost complete. If they had read my macro, they would know to instead raise another dead person OR focus on healing while I complete the raise.

when I see a healer manually rez a player while aoes fly all over the place, I will use my swiftcast + rez (if up) and I dont care if a macro was used or not to tell me said healer was rez someone that he/she was not in full condition to do effeciently whereas I am. He/she can interrupt his/her rez and maybe save his/her skin and me the hassle to have to rez said healer because well you know during those 7.5 secs where he/she need to stay static + the 2 seconds it took to send out the macro some aoe might hit him/her. My goodness this is not a very good excuse you gave

How can you be come a bad healer when you are using swiftcast and rez while the other healer is wasting precious time using just the rez skill. I would prefer that healer with the CD swiftcast to heal/buff/debuff the other players or dps instead of waiting to rez someone. If you don't have swiftcast ready, don't waste time rezing someone. That is being a bad healer. The only time that could be tolerable to do so is when you are in a low level dungeon and even then you could be dpsing. You would do good dps while you wait for your swiftcast to be ready.

I have been in many dungeons where healers killed their tanks or themselves because they are using just resurrection without swiftcast and they get hit by the boss/mob AOE, fall off from a platform, or get pushed to the walls, etc (raids, ex primals, regular dungeons). the other healer won't even wait for you- general speaking- to be halfway rezing someone. The other healer would have rez the dead player as soon as they saw you with a casting bar.
