Rescue Needs to GO

[ZedxKayn]

As someone who's been on both sides of this, I'd rather not waste the res mana. If I happened to fuck up, and I'm not gonna get mad at the healer for doing it. I get the desire to greed, but own the fact you're being a shit when you do it if you know how to be safe.


However, if you're someone who's Arm's Lengthing Rescue for your own greed instead of fucking with your friends in a game of AoE puddle chicken (the only time it's appropriate), then the only reason the healer's not just dragging you into the wall later on is because the rest of the raid's on the floor. And if you die because of it you're not getting ressed anytime soon, and it is because you were being a dumbass.

Greeding is earned through experience. Do the mechanics right first and play the risks AFTER you're certain it'll work. It takes some people much longer to get to that point than you realize, and Healers tend to err on the side of caution because this game's netcode in regards to rescue is not particularly lenient, something you could have read in the first page of this thread.

I know my greed will work, that's the point, I've got hundreds of hours on harder content and thousands in casual content, I know what I'm doing, infinitely moreso than the average DF healers. I don't want to be rescued because the times the rescues are beneficial are extremely rare exceptions.

If there's 5 seconds left on the boss's castbar and I've been very visibly slidecasting to the safe spot, if I've popped all my personal mitigation and am still sitting on second wind/bloodbath for after the ouchies, or if I'm standing right in front of the rock that's barely out of melee range to land my last GCD, I know what I'm doing and getting rescued feels awful.
