[dev1024] New SCH Spells

Right now every mage that isn't WHM and BLM is missing a role..aka SCH and RDM.

WHM BLM and BLU

I'm pretty sure their vision for Scholar's role is "sporadically put large numbers in the chat log, make people who fear math complain". Which, if looked at in a totally pessimistic fashion, is totally appropriate for a Scholar.

I'm really hoping good ol' Silke sells them in Bastok Markets [S], and that they don't make them like the SMN 2-hour avatars and require me to finish WotG missions.

Remember that one guy you got your Helix and Weather spells from? 2k says he sells the new spells now come update. Only fitting really.

Yeah my guess is either That Guy in Eldieme [S] or Silke in Bastok Markets [S], who has had the newer spells. I'll be kneeling down in front of one or the other Sunday night.

Hmm..thoughts on some more new spells.

1.) Magic Evasion Spell
2.) Elemental Eater spells good for one spell

A spell that absorbs Dispel. Watching Perpetuance buffs get wiped away so easily is starting to get annoying. Have it function the same way as Aquaviel so it absorbs Dispel a number of times based off Enhancing skill.

While I have doubts that SE will make a spell that absorbs Dispel (especially multi-effect variants) currently you can do your best to maximize the number of buffs on the tank or yourself to prevent Dispel from taking out anything useful.

Even garbage buffs like barstatus spells from White Mage or the enmity spell from Scholar start to become very useful in these situations. Definitely helpful for the time being, or at least until there is a buff like that.

Yeah that annoys me to, would be nice to have some kind of dispel resistance or something.

They'll never give a Dispel Resistance spell, all they'd give at most is Bardarkra to WHM to grant a chance to resist dark based Dispel, and Barlightra for the light sided ones.
