Suggestion: Add a disable option for Rescue

[rachcouture]

They NEED to remove Rescue until:

1. Healers figure out that some classes have shields and keep track on when a shield is used ur not
2. People stop being trolls. (thankfully you can report those apparently. )
3. Healers stop being incompetent and pulling you INTO AoE by accident.
4. Healers stop pulling you out of your Leylines because they think you NEED to be in AoE heal range despite the fight having little to none unavoidable raid wide damage, but rather makes it so that if everyone is stacked everyone will have to dodge more mechanics.

Until then, I rather not have PUG healers being able to interrupt my burst phase because they are so terrified that my shield will disappear.

No one is deliberately pulling people into AoEs that aren't friends to begin with.

Your damage numbers aren't more important than respecting other players; in this case, 1-2 healers that have to waste valuable CDs on you because you're deliberately ignoring mechanics and think a pitiful shield on a non-tank class actually does more than shave a tiny sliver of damage off. You can teleport back to your Leylines, anyway, so why does it even matter?

If the thought of someone actually caring about other players in their party bothers you so much, then don't queue through Duty Finder. It's that simple.

Manaward shields for 30% of the black mage's max hp. No black mage is eating things with it that they expect to not kill them. Thats how its always worked and what the skill is for. You clearly havent played much blackmage.

Its not just about leylines, theres interrupted casts, which can lead to dropped enochian, fewer fire 4s in a window, and delayed xenoglossy's, etc. Your petty healer cooldown, or, god forbid a gcd not spent on glare at worst aint more important than respecting other players.

Think they're more likely to get rid of the skill altogether than to give it "additional options". So far in SB ive only used it a couple times in titania ex to yank people away from edge that get that confusion/fear debuff and to yank in range that stand too fucking far away to get aoe heals but that's about it really. If a serious healer is rescuing you you're prolly doing something wrong, so quit fucking up!

You would be surprised over How many people troll with this skill. It isn’t extremely common, But it is more common than seeing healers using it properly.

Also, I am not ignoring mechanics, I am literally popping a shield so I only lose, if any, a super Tiny bit of health that doesn’t even need to be healed as I will be right back up on health due to natural regeneration in time for the next damage I take. The BLM shield actually absorbs about 1/4th if your max HP which negates almost all damage in almost all dungeon mechanics. Ofcourse I am not standing in those few mechanics that does huge damage that the shield won’t negate.

Had a LoA ally raid today on final boss healer use rescue on a dps to prevent death from ancient flare. All the healer did was warp the dead body of the dps to the panel. First time to see rescue being used outside of trolling but sadly it didn't succeed.

They have a point though.

Sometimes it can look to an inexperienced healer that the BLM or such is out of heal range, too close to an aoe or in danger of dying when in fact that player knows every mechanic in the fight and has it all mapped in their head for max uptime and being able to survive. It can be frustrating when the inexperienced healer has the power to yoink you out of position over a misjudgement.

Not the end of the world and they had good intentions, but still tedious. You have to question whether the number of successful Rescue's outnumber the troll or poorly judged rescues. Since it's such a tricky skill to use and often useless due to server ticks and animation delay, probably not.

happened to me in aurum vale because i went to the farthest fruit to dispell the debuff
from a sprout healer no less went straight to the blacklist

Guy likely made a mistake because he is a newbie:

BLACKLISTED!

Although, on the positive side, he can still party with you. He can just not message you, but since you don't seem like a very nice person I am sure he isn't too fussed about that.

[AriannaStormwake]

not being nice? you are mistaken about me i am one of the nicest people in the game
sorry if my first reply made you think otherwise
btw i am not angry about a bad timed rescue from a sprout healer just confused/shocked
because he rescued me close to the boss ahaha
