Helix Spells for Scholar

I might be alone on this one, but I really hope Scholar gets some sort of Helix DoT spell as the level cap increases.

I really enjoyed the idea of being able to change the weather around the party to provide specific buffs (didn't Rainstorm give +MND, etc.?) and to enhance the potency of the Helix spells.

I think in general it would be nice to have separate DoT's than SMN. Or hell, even if SCH get access to Weather spells and SMN get Helix spells...

EDIT: In before people start with the "Healers don't DPS anyways" posts.

That sound like something Astrologian should do.

I can see SE putting helix spell on smn if they work the way the worked in XI and sch getting storm spells.

I'm ok with that too! I was planning to start working on Astrologian ASAP. I just associated this with SCH since it had been used in FFXI. Overall, just hoping for more hard hitting DoTs.

https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Category:Helix could explain it much better than I ever could. There were one or two exploits in FFXI where an all SCH group could stack the Helix DoT and a Helix enhance ability at the same time.

Thanks. So, if I'm understanding this correctly, Helix is just a harder-hitting DoT? (I see some elemental stuff, but I'm assuming we're skipping that since we don't do elemental damage in this game?)
