The middle is safe. For a lot of reasons.

1) If cracks appear under healers, they can move without endangering BLMs. This means BLMS are free to continue DPSing without having to worry about running.

2) If cracks wipe out a healer, they aren't gonna wipe out anyone else. If you stack BLMS with healers, then you run the risk of having multiple ppl wipe from one freakin crack.

3) If you have melee DD its easier if BLMS stand behind them. That gives us a pathway to run to the top right or top left corners without endangering BLMs OR WHMs. You basically take a diagonal path to the side and up.

All in all everyone is safe when you have a whm on each side and everyone else behind ifrit.
