Date of issue: 29th January 2026
Time of issue: 4PM~ CST
Frequency: Always
World name: Siren
Character name: Sharia Kahlsed
Retainer name: None
NPC name: None
Monster name: None
Class/Level: White Mage / 100
Party or solo: Party [3-person party within full-size alliance raid]
Race: miqote female
In-game time: unknown
Area and coordinates: San d'Ora: The Second Walk [and most, if not all, other raids from ARR through Shadowbringers]
Housing: None
Steps:
1.I am fighting in a raid in group B
2. Several people in alliances a & c die
3. I use raise [with a macro that ties my raise into a swiftcast when available] people [not in my party, or section of alliance, as per achievement description]
4. Keep moving through raid until completion, not a single res has counted toward my achievement by end of raid
5. * I have noticed similar issues in nearly every raid.
6. ** The only place I have seen these raises work toward the achievement is Bozja and other similar zones that i have typically avoided, or, on the very rare occurence i find a body, in the general overrworld
7. *** I have also tried this with the same error without using a macro with the same result. The macro is a relatively recent change I've made, and I've been fighting this achievement bug for over a year.
In Game questions received from Game Master Team:
Did any of the players you casted Raise on receive a Raise as well from another player at around the same time?: it is entirely possible in that day's instance, but as stated, this is a bug I've struggled with for well over a year, and there have been instances where I was the only healer out of six alive and did not receive credit toward the achievement.
Would it be possible for you to provide screenshots or a video clip showcasing the Raises not counting towards your Kindness of Strangers achievement?: video? never. i do not stream from my playstation so I have no viable way tto upload video--- especially as the files tend to be "too large" to unload on the very few occasions I've tried. As for screenshots, it could theoretically be possible, although I'm not sure how well that would work. I'd have to do it for something new as, again, I don't bother typically with that sort of thing.
Connection Specs

* I am unsure if I'm using the PS4 backwards compatible version, but I would not be surprised as until a year ago I was, in fact, playing on a PS4 [also with this bug present].
