Update sept 19 failure.....

[Delvish]

Didn't SE say those adjustments would take place after this update?

Yes actually, Camate the all mighty did say that updates were coming to Scholar and that we'd hear about them sometime after the Sept. update, so look for them in Oct. Our time is coming...

We'll see if they give us a well thought out update, or if they're just going to give us a few half assed spells.

I'm looking forward to the Light and Dark Arts adjustments. It'll be nice to have our own bonus for being SCH mains rather than everyone having the same benefit from Light/Dark Arts.

They'll be good, but I just wish it wasn't going to steal even more from RDM's fast cast. Would much prefer it if the bonus increase was only on the spell cost side.

Square Enix will say anything to keep player playing the game.
Welcome too Vandiel
A place where Square Enix are gods that like too Nerf players instead of making them stronger?
Umm...

You are thinking of the last Dev team. The new one actually listens to its player base, and the pending adjustments to light/dark arts proves that.

I don't understand the hate over the new two hour abilities. Tabula Rasa effectively been redefined and made relevant again. Maybe I'm just blowing off at the mouth though since I've only recently taken up SCH but the job is still very much competent outside of abyssea and now there's use for both those abilities for endgame NMs... well i guess maybe not BCNMs and KSNMs that people do back to back, but still. I guess when I compare the two hour abilities SCH got to what SMN got (SMN my main, I can't help but compare) SE got it right this time.

Embrava is absolutely amazing, even in long sessions inside abyssea. Two hour + accession + perpetance then just pop a revit or an ISL chest and go back at it. Maybe I'm the only one pretty much star struck by it though.

A jobs utility shouldn't be defined by it's 2 hour ability. If you're chest farming inside of abyssea it may be fine, but once you start fighting monsters back to back, or you do things outside of abyssea, the utility of your 2 hour ability really doesn't matter.

Plus it doesn't address the core problem with scholar, mainly it isn't a white mage and it isn't a black mage. Being somewhere inbetween means little if you don't bring something unique.

Why would you want just a bonus to MP cost reduction? So we'll have casting speed that may potentially rival a RDM. That's something that's going to let us do our job in parties that much better.
