I've personally have been using raging fever more frequently ever since it's rework(yes, it's now a guaranteed crit). And I would say it favors two ways of playing:

1. You're the type to almost exclusively only use sp for slashing high AND you tend to have a lot of excess sp from the raid (either because the boss is sand baggy so you get sp fast, or you use a cat statue).

2. You don't care about efficiency.

At high level play raging fever isn't really that great because getting a guaranteed 7k + at least 4k glide doesn't make up for the cost of 250 sp(using awakening stones may make you change your mind, but wouldn't that apply to anything?).

Some niche situations where I did find it very useful were:

1. When you're waiting to attack the boss(e.g. Keaghan's tantrum cutscene or ulchas' look-at-me cutscene), this allows you do a fully charged gust sting + raging fever + a guaranteed glide which is pretty decent. Does it make up for 250 sp? Refer to the above mentioned playstyles. In case you didn't know, you can combo a fully charged gust sting into the raging fever.

2. Using an instant raging fever when you know the boss is about to die and you want to burn your sp. I feel it's only in this situation that raging fever ever only shines - it's essentially a free guaranteed crit since you won't care about sp at this point.

Overall I think raging fever is interesting but really only applicable in minor cases.

Tl;dr: Raging fever is extremely subpar, especially when compared to other class' skills.

It's not a secret.

you can technically brain dead farm gold to a point where you can buy a +15 weapon or whatever you want from someone else.

Tfw you can't because you play in a dead server. +cry

Where is the "it doesn't matter" option?

When I have an orange weapon, I have to yolo it.
