    I have been pulled once on a dungeon, to get to the other side of the aoe (tho I was fine already) maybe healer likes hugs, dunno, I found it funny.

    Anyway, heard some leaks say they are going to remove role skills, so, dunno, I as a healer never use it, not even on my crossbar

    I have a healer friend who likes to mess with me using Rescue sometimes but it's all in jest...but overall it's very useful skill to have. I think it does more good than bad by existing.

    It's kinda required for some savage mechanics when used properly, so I'm going to have to disagree with this thread.

    Wow Handles this Better

    Personally as someone who mains healer I think Rescue is a garbage skill and no one is going to learn mechanics if you are rescuing them from them. I refuse to even put rescue on my hot bar when I could have told a sprout or person whom is new to content the mechanics before hand and if we wipe I am more than willing to do the content multiple times until we get it right.

    Content is also garbage if rescue is a necessity plain and simple that is just fact.

    There should be an option in game settings to opt out of rescue entirely and giving the party a notification, "this player has opted out of rescue adjustment" so the whole party knows their healer just tried to rescue troll someone.

    WoW has this option for their rescue skill however I feel it should go above and beyond with the notification going party wide.

    I have never had rescue used on me efficiently when playing as a DPS class it is always used as a skill a healer uses when they are bored and they want to troll someone or get someone killed.

    I cannot tell you how many times I have had to make a ticket for rescue abuse while playing as a healer in raids and the other healer thinking it is funny to kill the DPS with the skill or me. Or when I am playing a DPS in those raids and those healers think those same things in those raids.

    Then when I throw up my macro that says hey please do not use rescue on me thank you, I am met with vitriol and ire. The simple fact that I have rescue used on me abusively so often that I have a macro for it is evidence enough that this skill needs to be canned or the ability to be opted out of.

    I respectfully disagree because some savage content strats designed by players makes it easier with rescue. It also has its uses. yes, the skill has the high potential for trolling, but it also has the high potential for its usability as well.

    Sorry that you are meeting such players in game, but your experiences don't warrant the skill being removed in its entirety

    I've had this discussion before, and the best solution to this problem is to simply allow people to opt out of Rescue working on them. Make it a toggle that's on by default, and put a little debuff next to the players Party frame so Healers know he can't be Rescued. World of Warcraft already does this, because they understand how much players despise intrusive abilities like that.

    I agree that Rescue is primarily a troll button, and in my experience does way more harm than good. I would turn it off IMMEDIATELY if I had the option, but I understand some people use it in their statics to cheese mechanics or optimize, so just let people who don't want it used on them opt out of it.

    Yep, this kind of goes with the same fact that many people still think job balance is made primarily for dungeons and normal content, which isn't the case. Savage is the barometer for job balance and skills because this is where all of them, including rescue and other former role skills such as Surecast are used 100%.

    I saved my new, sprout cohealer from Ancient Flare in CT a few days ago in the nick of time. It felt pretty good, and they picked up on the mechanic pretty much right away after.

    It has it's place. It also just enables people to be dicks, too.
