Adloquium

With FFXIV Stormblood expansion comes new job skills. With the whole them revamping of older skills, do you think we will see maybe the sch skill adloquium become instant cast. It\\'s pretty popular with ast. What do you guys think?

Is this a serious request? I mean, really? For all the things to ask for, you're asking for something to make a broken class even more broken while copying an advantage a different class has.

Just because the devs can do it doesn't mean they should. People still barely run noct AST as is.

Haha it's just a question lol. We can agree to disagree that's cool. I just think it would be cool if they did. I know it more than likely won't happen but a girl can dream.

Are you willing to give up the fairy for it?

Honestly I don't think it would change much. The advantages of scholar are inherent in the mechanics of the class... cutting out a cast time, particularly when other elements of scholar are bound to be 'rebalanced', doesn't seem like it would be harmful to me.

As with other instant abilities, adlo's recast time would be greatly increased, and/or like Miasma 2 and Ruin 2, would share the gcd with your other abilities.

One thing for sure though is how awesome it would be to cast Adlo on the move without needing to use swiftcast.

Haha well it's nice to theorycraft about upcoming changes. I'm glad some agree with me that it won't harm much of the sch toolkit. No I'm not willing to give up the fairy lol. All I'm saying is being able to cast Aldo on the move will not be such a bad change.

Better: Are you willing to give up double shielding on crits?

Aspected Benefic's instant cast nature is the only reason why it's so much weaker than Adlo in every way.

Not sure why it's a big deal, you can heal on the move today with a force embrace.

Swiftcast+Adlo was actually a thing back in Final Coil Turn 10 to solo preys. Sometimes you have to remember Swiftcast is a 60s cooldown and sitting on it forever for a death that isn't going to happen with a good group is almost wasting the skill. If you need to use it to save a life on-the-go, use Swift instead of after they die.

Or lustrate xd.

If I could change anything it'd be succor so it gets the same criteria shield adlo does.

Maybe drop the recast on caress make selene a bit more useful

Depends on the situation. Swiftcast+Adlo if they need VIT to survive a mechanic while on the move (weakness), Lustrate for dire HP right now (Someone's Blood for Blood still up during almost Holy spam in A12S), or just force embrace if you have several GCDs until a mechanic. Plus getting that crit Embrace is like yay I don't need to Lustrate, gimme that energy drain.

yes would make it really op with lustrate and indom There not much like that with ast except light speed, but there is a very long cd on that.

Are you serious? Nocturnal shields are better on average. Only a crit makes SCH shields better.
