I'll say I have a raging hard-on for SCH. It's probably obvious to anyone I meet in the game.
I don't think it should step on the toes of BLM, I think it needs its own spells to make it special. However, I don't think SCH should be considered 'weaker' because it uses both schools of magic as I think there's plenty of areas where a SCH can be powerful. An exclusive nuke would be a nice addition, but as long as it didn't crap on BLM. I think SCH's real Magic DD strength shouldn't be in nuking. Nuking should be secondary to its helices - throw a helices to gradually deal a crap load of damage with the choice to throw in nukes in the middle or heal, but for the helix to be the main source of damage. It's how I play the job and I think we should be looking more into SCH's uniqueness not to piggy back off of play styles from other jobs. The reason I love SCH is because it's different, I wouldn't want to see it to become just a cross between BLM and WHM.
