    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.

    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.
