Please, NEVER nerf RDM!

Verraise costs 1/4 of your total mp though. There's no way you can cast it six times in a row, especially if you're casting other spells in between. The most you can get is three, and then you're pretty much oom.

You're missing the point. RDM gets a free Swiftcast Raise anytime they use Jolt, which is...every other cooldown. Yeah, it eats through mana, just as Raise eats through healer mana. That fact that it happens without the use of a single big cooldown and can be instantly worked into a standard RDM rotation (just switch Thunder or Aero with Raise, and you're good) is the problem.

If you have groups in savage who depend on rdm raises this bad, they wont clear the content.
Otherwise I am not sure what the problem is with rdm being able to raise 1-2 people really fast. The debuff one gets from raise hits hard on your dps. RDM mana is oom and he cant dps either.
You will maybe only win overgeared content or content which you do unsync like that.

You're also missing that you can only raise twice to keep your DPS up. Thats only 1 more than SMN.
And as others have said, even if I was top DPS in my susano (idk why the SAM wasnt out doing my pittiful 3.1k dps)
If im out of MP to keep my DPS up, im not much better than a dead DPS.
And honestly even with my rez, the group still failed the enrage most of the time.

The one group that didnt need my raises, they were able to beat the DPS check.

In short, having 1 more raise over a SMN isnt all that its cracked up to be.
It IS a bonus over SMN, but its not as crazy as people make it out to be.

SMN and BLM just need some minor adjustments.
(SMN needing a sort of gauge that only depletes with GCDs, rather than with time, would be great)
