    In statics where everyone is on the same page I can understand the value of Rescue. In DF however, it should be a toggle.
    Read the tooltip bud. Arm's length/Surecast grants immunity to knockbacks AND draw in effects. Thinking this applies to just enemies is some kind of arbitrary rule that makes little sense.

    Your post is also a perfect example of the overexaggerated impact of healers using Rescue. "Hurting the entire run"? What a load of bullocks. I would even wager some players reading this thread didn't even know they could prevent Rescue with their immunity skill.

    Or you can realize that no one expects you to predict a healer using Rescue on you. All I implied was that if your DPS uptime is so important to you that you will greed, then either use your immunity during this time, or don't cry if the healer rescues you. It is absolutely ridiculous to think a healer is doing this to spite the player being rescued. And who is saying that use if your immunity skill is reason enough to keep Rescue in the game? Strawman? It sure wasn't me. Of course it is not the ideal use of it, but there is no prediction required. It's called being proactive.
