Scroll of instant reraise... work auto when you die? Or just for teammates?

Does the scroll of instant reraise work automatically for your char when he/she dies? Or does it only work on teammates?

it only works on yourself

you have to activate the scroll, the scroll is lost then (you must be alive to use the scroll)
you gain the effect of the WHM spell reraise.

means if you die you can reraise yourselft

It also has a limited duration, although I don't remember what it is. Just something else to keep in mind. Although hopefully you don't die often enough to need these.

Yeah, duration is something like 30 min. or 1hr.

Dang, well can you activate it in a fight? Because I figure I'll just use it if I know I'm going to die in a fight.

If I remember correctly, it takes a bit for it to activate. The general use would be: If you think you run a high risk of dying and you don't have raise available, use the scroll before battle. Then, for the next hour (or 30 min?) if you die, you will be able to raise immediately, just as if someone cast the spel on you right after you died. This scroll can only be used on yourself, not anyone else in the party. Finally, another thing to remember with this, if you die and the pt is still fighting the mob, unless you think by coming back is the only way (and has a good chance of succes) to save the party, then I would wait until the battle is over. You will come back weakened just as from the normal raise spell which I believe takes 5 minutes to wear off. This means a gobbie bomb or the like will instantly take you down if you are within range afterwards, or are just unlucky and it is thrown just as you raise.
