Scholar Healing Guide

I would drop Surecast in favor of Cleric Stance and Aero. If you fully spec MND, all of that goes to INT with Cleric Stance and your DoTs will pretty much be on par with a Summoner. Energy Drain also gets a nice damage boost that allows you to recover more MP and put out a good chunk of burst.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the fairy suffers any penalty to healing potency while you are under Cleric Stance. So if the fairy is enough to keep people alive for ~10 seconds, spending some time to help DD with Cleric Stance > BioII/Miasma/Bio > Bane > Shadow Flare can speed up dungeon runs by quite a bit.

Good points, I'll add this in later.

I believe the fairy's stats depend on your's when you summon her, so if she's already out and you use cleric stance her potency won't suffer. At least that's what I've heard, I haven't tested that much

This is correct. Pet stats are 'generated' upon summoning and won't be affected afterwards by your own (buffed or debuffed).

Nice guide Dijana, very informative.

Afaik, Rouse and Fey Illumination do not affect each other (Rouse does not boost the healing % of Illumination), but they do 'stack' if the fairy uses Whispering Dawn afterwards (both boost the healing output into a hyper AoE HoT)

Quick question to the other Scholars out there though. I have noticed that my Fairy heals more and more consistently of I 'place' her instead of having her follow me. Anyone else notice something similar, or am I just imagining things?

Thanks, I'll add this in

It's probably because you're moving around during the battlefield and you have your fairy on follow. The fairy will not cast anything when it's moving around. That's why I usually place the fairy at the tank and away from AoE.

I also urge all SCH to take their time to level up THM and get swiftcast, it helps out so much in primal fights and instances when other people mess up.

I always noticed my fairy would just stop moving and heal someone instantly even when Im moving, but I think if you get out of a certain range, she will catch up to you first before she continues healing, so that could be it.

Why is your fairy better than mine?
