I've had a couple ideas bouncing around in my thoughts for a while, and figured I'd finally share them with the community to see what others thought of it.
As we all know, we have a couple levels of Occult Acumen that essentially does us no good due to always switching staves, along with Adloquium that's virtually not worth casting. Ever. I also find that I can go through my strategem charges quite quickly, especially when things get busy.
So I was wondering if it'd be good to give SCH two JAs that make use of that TP we're always getting (And promptly losing) and use it to restore charges. I'm terrible with naming spells and abilities so I'll just use generic names:
Job Ability: Accumulate TP
Recast: 15-30 seconds or so.
What this would do is store away the TP, similar to how Sublimation works. It takes all TP the player currently has and stores it. So if you have 30% TP and use the JA, 30% is now stored. Then you gain 21% TP and use the JA again. Now 51% is stored. It's important that the recast remains low so that it can be used between nukes.
Now for the second JA...
Job Ability: Use Up TP
Recast: 3-5 mins.
This JA will make use of the stored TP. For every 100 TP you regain a strategem charge. We can have icons like this to indicate where the amount is:
For less than 100%
100-300%
This effect would carry over through zoning much like Sublimation.
Basically, you'd nuke, use the JA, then use your next spell which would involve staff swapping and repeat the process until you have enough stored. This would give a purpose to stuff like Occult Acumen and Adloquium, and also let SCH make use of TP wings in events like Voidwatch/Abyssea/whatever.
Given how long it takes for a SCH to build 300% TP, and how strategems are SCH's bread and butter, I think this would be a great addition to the job that would be useful but not overpowering. Any thoughts or opinions on this?
