I have learned something important about casting spells in dynamis. Don't know how many people know so I'll share.Originally Posted by Lordwafik
When I try and raise someone I do /ma "Raise III" <person's name>. I just type it out. And every so often nothing seems to happen. When I press up to select it again, it says 'unable to cast at this time'.
The reason why I was unable to cast is that I am casting Raise III. The game just decided not to tell me. It happens all the time to me in dynamis on people not in my party.
Next time it happens to you, try and cast again to see if you get the message. If you do, just sit there and don't move or do anything and watch your mp dissapear as you cast the spell and the game doesn't tell you. Even sometime the person being raised doesn't even know who raised them.
It helped so much when I learned this because I also type /ma "Cure V" person on someone not in my party who is almost dead. It sucked when nothing happened so I try and move and get closer. But all I did was cancel the spell in progress and the person would die. Now I just sit there and watch my mp dissapear and I know the spell was cast.
