    [Suggestion] Add raise spell to BLM or remove it from RDM and SMN

    I don't see why BLM is above the two others, there's no good argue, also BLM has infinite mana in ice so BLM could raise for free instant cast during ice...
    Rotation ? RDM and SMN has to plan, RDM has to fill up gauges in time for some points of the fight, not loose a gcd to raise someone ; SMN has to keep instant for garuda's puddle or an ifrit cast

    No really please remove it, RDM SMN are DPS, it's already enough to plan the rotation

    My subjective opinion on the matter:
    With RDM, Raise is one of literally 2 spells that make Red Mage feel like it genuinely has access to White Magic. So to keep the Red Mage class fantasy alive, it's gotta stay.

    Should Summoner have Raise? I honestly don't care. It's not a part of the Summoner class fantasy, but I see why it's there because of Arcanist. I really don't think it matters.

    Black Mage absolutely should not have Raise, and that's coming from a Black Mage main. For decades now, resurrection spells have been associated with White Magic, and Black Mage shouldn't be doing White Magic stuff.
    (Though all of that said...I wouldn't complain if they brought back sub-classes and Black Mage could get rez by sub-classing WHM)

    Something about further homogenizing classes being bad aside, let's just bring blm dps down to be equal to rdm dps, then we have a deal.

    To me, having earth, wind, a self heal, vermiracle, one more groupe mitig and an instant cast half of the time is enough white magic, raise is not a DPS job as AOE heal/regen or AOE shield isn't neither, meanwhile WAR... but WAR it's OGCDs it's not killing his planification

    Arcanist shouldn't have raise neither, should be specific to scholar
