Me: NIN, in Labyrinth, banging away on the Atomos and adds, as I'm supposed to. Idiot healer: Rescues me into the "unshield other Atomos" pad with a snarky comment, because our BRD decided to be An Hero. Me: /deride <Healer> Shukuchi right back to the Atomos and stays right there 'til it's down.
I was running Praetorium last night and rescued our Dancer for no reason in the Colossus fight because I wanted a hug. For the record, the Dancer is my actual fiancee.
Trying to keep unnessecery rescues to a minimum when I'm on healer, but if I have seen you fail the same mechanic 3 times already then I am not trusting you to get it right the 4th time.
The only times i rescue pple is either if they are purposely run away from stack/or like special situations like if one to many persons fuck the mech we wipe, like ancient flare or a rougue tank that doesnt help seperating the adds. Or a dps that greeded to much and is about to get wiped f9r the third time by the 'hide behinde the rock' mech. So essentially best way to use rescue is to avoid needing to spend mana on raise
I had healers rescue me against Amon way way waaaaay too early many times, had time to walk back in melee, do many GCDs then backflip to safety. So now I just pop arm's length/surecast to be sure to be left alone. I fail, people get a laugh.
I have evolved the use of rescue even further. Either yoinking a BLM out of a Despair cast, or pulling a friend through tons of bad but NOT actually take any damage as the snapshot already went off. I don’t cause damage in game. I cause damage IRL 😁
I dont even use rescue in randoms. I dont use it at all in high end content with a static either because i dont want to mess up someone lesrning the mechanics. So basically i dont use it ever except to troll friends lol
Castrum Marinum – main tank Gnb, I'm cruising and pop sprint so that I can cheerfully pivot into a safe spot where the mines are going to push out. Sure enough I hear that sound go off, a rescue… Get dragged across the field to the healer who is not in a safe spot and we both get hit. It doesn't kill either of us and I'm not really mad, but I did have to tease them about it. And really we both deserved it shortly afterwards as we miss the knockback and both get thrown off. Whee
Had a healer do this to me in the Nier tower raid with the twins. I was actually standing in one of the safe zones when I saw my character get yoinked to the opposite one. The healer did apologize to me, saying that they forgot that there were TWO safe zone, but I was laughing so hard that I didn't care.
Crystal Tower LotA, my co-healer saw that I wasn't standing behind the same rock as him during the Behemoth fight, decided to Rescue me to his side, at the EXACT moment that Meteor exploded, killing me right there. He did appologize after and we had a good laugh, but man when it happened I did panic! XD
As a healer, I didn't see the second safe zone and, like a genius, pulled our pictomancer straight into the one-hit K.O. We had a solid 10 minute laugh about it.
I really wish they would remove this button from the game. There I was, playing paladin is Syrcus Tower for roulette. This braindead astro rescues me out of the mob pack, twice. Was there any danger? nope. Just literally intentional griefing
I’ve had it where I was doing the mechanics just fine and got yoinked by a rescue anyway
Very annoying
When healers think you are inept at doing mechanics. They rescue you, and eventually screw you over with it.

Sometimes as a healer you just got to keep them humble. We heal mind, body, and ego. Drag em straight into danger and remind them they ain't shit 😂
/s
You can always rescue someone off the edge as well. That's always fun in savage.

My best friend and I do this to each other all the time. When we actually get one another, we're like, "Oh, you ass" while losing it. 😂
The best is when the healer completely misread the safe zone and pulls you in to the heart of the bad.

I accidentally rescued our tank in Syrcus cause I got my buttons mixed up, hope they weren't too confused lol
My DPS gets the debuff of shame on his own

Bro, this happened to me just yesterday as an BLM in Paglth'an XD I thought wth – what was that for???
The middle hole of Suzaku trail… Me and a friend knew it was coming if either of us was the heal and other wasn't… Was just a matter of when!
