illys not so much?
necros/conjys not so much?
what about swashies?
healers and mt are situational?
when we used to raid with a SK he liked it for DM is that a legit use?

From a necro viewpoint, I like to get JC once every 3 - 3:30 so that I can keep the timer on lifeburn down. And I let the troub know before the pull when Im gonna use Tide so that they can help me out, but other than that I dont really want it.

Assassin's are the only class you need to cast it on.

If you are looking for someone to toss it on and have a bruiser in the raid, coordinating with him/her before they cast Knockout can provide some rather impressive boosts for them DPS wise.

Trolling in as a non-troub but as a popular jcap target - wizard. This is my personal view, and doesn't have to be agreed with for everyone though. Don't bother capping us mid fight unless the wizard has TC and/or Robe of Al'Kabor or ay other combo that makes us an actually fast caster. It simply won't give us very much boost anyway and would be better used on some rogue (inspiration, dispatched, god-knows-what). We rarely time shit for when cap lands anyway.
However, prepull we're more than happy to take it as well to get VG up quickly and to hopefully cover with a Fission extra for the more extended fights. VG recast timer starts as we cast it though unlike PoTM for example (which from what I've heard starts when it finish) so half the big use is lost if you cap right after we cast it. :p
So, the perfect use would be, just before pull to cover VG, the possibility to spam the shit out of everything and to get in a Fission as well before it runs out. That's how you give a wizard some love when the immunity is up on the briggy. ;)

I'm kind of biased towards melee classes getting it (used to be a brigand). A caster always has something to cast, while preds/rogues for periods just stand there autoattacking. Yes I know casters want to be casting the GOOD stuff as often as possible, but still... a jcapped assassin on incoming is a purdy thing.

brig on pull is nice dispatch if used twice on a mob is hell of alot of raid wide dps.
potm self and get ppl to use reply macro coz it more effective EG: you do the above and cap mage when he just spamed all his spells then theres no great gain there imo but if someone send you a tell when they have all there spells/ca's up %rt macro will hit them insta and they can unleash.
you dont have to target or have like 10 target macros on your hot bar easy life and you can dbuff dps as you doing this which to me everyone is a winner

Not just LB, Undead Tide is a huge one to JCAP and I have a very rough time getting it when I have that spell up.

Just curious as I havent tested, anyone know if you can JCAP racials like Dark Envy??

In summary, Necros have alot to gain from Jcaps so saying fast casting summoners dont benefit as much as other mages is stretch when you are providing no data to back up that claim.

BTW- I have both a raid Necro and Troub so I can offer that perspective.
