Fixing xiv's TERRIBLE ressurection priority

[dearlychloe]

Oh my. The one-post char that joined this month likes the OP so much.
I know we don't use that word any longer... but using a sock account to like your own posts in such an obvious way is definitely "cringe".

kindly think about the keystrokes you made to type out your post, because you seem to not understand the concept of a friend
i made a forum acc just to glaze the op because a) we're friends and b) i thought it would be funny, which it is
it's not that deep lil bro

And then people wonder why there are so many troll and bait posts in this forum.

if you think this is a troll or bait post, it might just be a difference in our raiding experience. I'm sorry that you don't see it the same way I do, but to call my hard work and effort a "troll and bait post" hurts deep down, I hope you can reconcile with what you said and maybe see the light that I am shining down to you. Cheers.

Do people not use the "Raising <t> !... <se.6>" Macros anymore ?
They helped prevent a lot of overlapped swift resurrections whenever I did stuff in PF.

Its a good start, but not a permanent solution, i think believing in people to chat is like expecting them to read pf descriptions, best to just avoid the reading check entirely.

I have a better idea: restrict the resurrection to one per player until the buff/effect is over.

For example, player X dies, and Healer Y and Healer Z both cast Instant Resurrection. If the game registers Healer Z resurrection first, then it refunds the Mana cost and resets the resurrection for Healer Y, who cannot use it on Player X until the resurrection buff/effect timer runs off.

This allows players not to worry about minor coordination issues like this and helps them focus on resurrecting others rather than being in a bad situation. Especially since the resurrection cast is instant, so it happens in less than 2 seconds, which makes it very difficult to coordinate outside voice chats.

You are one of the greatest minds this forum has ever seen, unfortunately my idea is still better long term.

This idea is great in theory, but experiencing this game's net code shows this won't work that well in practice. If an adlo heal and shield can heal and MIT the same attack if timed properly, this mechanic will miss the mark of it's intended purpose quite a lot when the rezzes happen too close together.
