    Raises aren't 'healer skill expression'. I'm not sure where you got that idea from.

    The punishment for people dying is already a damage loss. When Savage fights are current, you can't afford a whole lot of deaths because there's Enrage. Body checks just make progging a massive pain because unless everyone executes the mechanic perfectly, it's a wipe. It's why P8S was such a static killer. It's just arbitrarily making fights annoying without adding and meaningful difficulty.
