OHKOs is Lazy Boss Design

[Deceptus]

I often encourage a party in Sigma to just ignore the adds, I'll heal through the stacks or a BLM to just stay in their Ley Lines instead of cancelling a Flare for a noodle aoe. I can heal through it easily and without loss, give me the option to do that. But the moment you add damage downs, especially in endgame content, or OHKOs you take that option away and instead leave me to only heal perfectly predictable, scripted and limited unavoidable damage or Swift Raise.

Same. "Self Destruct" hits like a wet noodle and I routinely advise just ignoring them.
