Thoughts on the FFXI Job Adjustment Manifesto

[Economizer]

The way I interpreted that change was to fix SCH as a subjob rather than SCH as a main job. The only thing SCH practically got out of that update is Shock Spikes since we could only sub it using /blm (which is rarely used)

If SE was fixing Scholar as a sub job, they would have added Ice Spikes at a sub-able level. As it stands, most of the updates, and updates SE is considering pretty much seem to be making it so that at 99, Red Mage and Scholar are the main choices for sub jobs, and Black Mage if you want Stun.

Aye it was a boost to sch/nin if you needed stoneskin or blm/sch I guess, still don't see many of them around. Could just be the trashy forums I read, but I remember a lot of comments about sch winning that update though - either not understanding how sch works, not a surprise, or simply looking at the number of updates instead of what they were.

At the least they could have let us accession the spikes after giving them natively.

Spikes spells are under Dark Arts, so in order to AOE them you have to use Manifestation.
