So like Monk's One Ilm Punch? You know, that attack that no monk will ever use outside of PvP for any reason?

I don't see a tank fairy being thematically consistent or particularly useful (groups aren't likely to appreciate it, and SCH can already healtank solo content while purely DPSing), but I agree that a third summon is overdue.

Eos has skills that are fun to use and seem useful, but in practice she's largely redundant at end-game provided that the other healer is competent.

Selene is extremely bland, but practical. Even then, she's only really loved by BLMs and produces a miniscule increase in DPS for anyone else. Her Silence is of dubious usefulness with its 1 second duration and slight casting delay that makes it unreliable for interrupting anything but very long casts.

If another party buffing or healing-type fairy would make Eos or Selene obsolete, then maybe a fairy that focuses on synergy with the SCH's abilities. Or provide an entirely different kind of summon, maybe a summon/primal/esper out of the FF archives that isn't being used for a future SMN egi.

I'd love to see an Enmity reduction spell, like Bards have, for WHM... that doesn't toss your Shroud of Saints out the window prematurely (or when not needed... and then still on cool down when you DO need it)... I hate having to use Shroud for anything but emergency MP (I usually pop it at half mp or less).

Otherwise - borrowing 'Bless' from ye olde Ragnarok Online, what about a spell that raises Str/Dex/Int (or some combo of stats) for the party for a certain amount of time and certain cool down? I'd say raising stats for every main stat for every class type (MND, INT, DEX, STR, VIT) but that would be OP.... and I'm sure tanks could still at least semi-benefit from some temp STR for killing/enmity... just as I'm sure some DPS can benefit from VIT for hp buffering (as anyone would) if it was VIT/DEX/INT

Doesn't shroud have a I minute cool down? it should be used when you all like 80% mana

No, I believe it's two minutes.

This will be sorely needed in the future. Can you imagine a level 80 WHM using the Shroud we have now? It seems stupid that they gave Aetherflow a scaling MP recovery, while Shroud remains fixed so they have an excuse to waste a trait slot on buffing it each level cap raise. Shroud already returns mana with a regen like effect (which is less effective than a burst recoverly like Aetherflow), if anything each "tick" should be scaled off of max MP.

I'd like 1.0's Blissful Mind (MP recovery based on hp) or Sacred Prism (turns one cast of a single target spell into an aoe) back. Sacred Prism would have to be renamed though. Blissful mind would also help with the Shroud of Saints scaling issue since it would scale with your HP. I suppose those are abilities not spells though. I agree something like Decoy/Animus Augeo and Animus Minuo to help out with enmity control could be nice.

One thing I want to see is a 30-min buff like Stoneskin for Scholars - Bubble would be the perfect Arcanist buff to do that! Simply increases x%HP for 30mins (cross class with enhanced trait on Arcanists to balance out Proshell).
Another thing could be a spell that gives a random buff/debuff to the target (FFTA2 Scholar spells).
Maybe another Soil that uses an Aetherflow to create a buff area - something like Ethereal Soil - regenerates MP inside a designated area, works same as Sacred Soil.

I also like the idea with having 2 fairies up for a short time.

The next spells for WHM are pretty obvious Reraise, Arise and Vitaja (massive overcure lol).

Seeing as Petrification is already removeable with the use of a Gold Needle, it makes no sense that a better Esuna would not be able to remove it.

Maybe you're referring to "Stone Curse" which is a totally different thing?


But on topic, I think it would be neat with a skill which acted sort of like a Mana piggy bank, if that makes any sense
