Spell request for Scholar [Dev]

Can we please have Shell as a new Team buff. I feel that the team is lesser geared with the crappy version of protect that the paladins can put on us.

We don't need this. There are a lot of problems with the idea of this being added.

Examples: Stacking with Proshell (Why wouldn't it? It would be able to be applied with Protect), Shell would(should) be a WHM spell (See: Proshell), Eos and magic damage reduction. There are more.

Shell is basically taken by the white mages traited protect.

I'd just like for our gimpy protect to overwrite a WHM's protect so I'm not stuck having to recast it 5 minutes into a DF run.

Maybe during the expansion we can Cross Class traits as well? As WHM i'd like to have Supervirus or Improved Eye for an Eye.

Why would you want it to override a WHM's protect? You'd remove the Shell effect on people who have it already and gimp their magic defense boost.

I think he's talking about when someone joins your party with Protect already on, the SCH one won't overwrite it so 3 people get 30 minutes of protect while that one guy has 3 minutes of enhanced protect, thus forcing the SCH to recast protect in 3 minutes to rebuff that guy.

Stacking Shell, Proshell (Protect + Traited WHM Shell) on top of Fey Covenant's would be very powerful.

Scholar already gets a Shell-type buff. Check your Eos petbar. And Sacred Soil gives further mitigation.

I'm talking about a 30 min buff.
