    Has Rescue been changed to have a long telegraph so players can see it coming and use Arm's Length/Surecast to block it?

    None of these things?

    Then that isn't a solution, is it?

    Also: You forgot Inner Release.
    Rescue has enough of a delay for you to use Surecast/Arm's Length if you want to not move. Part of the reason WHY Rescue is such a pain point is because it HAS a delay. If the delay was gone and server tick wasn't shite healers could better time the skill to allow for higher DPS uptime for their melee.

    What you're asking for is an opt out button from Rescue completely. Which I have said and will continue to say if you're going to go through all of the trouble to do that, then you may as well stop coming up with "solutions" because they all result in Rescue being deleted from the game.

    And personally, if your that worried about an instance that frankly doesn't even make up 5% of your gameplay time - a troll using Rescue - then yes, you should lose your KB immunity over it. Because its just as big of a deal. Any mechanic in the game that knocks you back that you can immune you can just as easily do with out it.

    I'm tired of being told to wait for post-patches and expansions for fixes and increased healing requirements that are never coming. Healers are not fun in all forms of content like all jobs should be, they're replaced by tanks and dps due to low healing requirements and their dps kit is small for 0 reason, when in the past we had more options and handled things just fine. I refuse to play healer in roulette come DT. I refuse to heal EXs, I refuse to go into Savage, and I am boycotting Ultimate.

    I would LOVE to see you test this. Have someone use Rescue on you when you're in the middle of a fight at some random point so you don't know it's coming. See if you can react quick enough to use Arm's Length/Surecast to prevent the movement.

    Oh, and it also needs to be a fight where you need KB immunity at some point in the fight, so now that it's on CD, you get KO'd by that mechanic.

    I've already said I'm fine with that.

    There is no fight in this game where you NEED KB immunity. I've already said so. The only time it would ever save me is if I was positioned incorrectly.

    I have actually immuned a Rescue from a healer trying to kill me. It is 100% possible to do, the delay is long enough.


    And while you are fine with removing Rescue I'm not.

    I wouldn't have worded it that way, but by all means.
