supervirus more impactful than proshell

However, this means the SCH in that stance no longer has a way to shield for tankbusters. Or those big raid AoEs.

Is it confirmed now that Emergency Tactics is a stance/toggle? Or is that just a speculation?

I doubt it's a stance. Sounded more like a temporary buff, similar to Divine Seal, Fey Illumination, etc.

If it is a stance, be prepared for the tears.

Here is what we know:

*The stream shows off a video demonstration of scholar actions. Please note that all action names are tentative.

Instead of just simply increasing a scholar's abilities, we made adjustments by adding actions that require you to really think about their use and the best time to utilize them. There are many actions which are useful during boss battles, so you may feel that it hasn’t changed much while running through instance dungeons.

New action: Indomitability
A new AoE healing action will supplement scholar’s current AoE healing strength, which may have felt a bit weak up until now.

New action: Deployment Tactics
This action will extend the effect of Adloquium and Eye for an Eye that is on the target player to other party members in range.

New action: Emergency Tactics
Instead of adding a barrier effect to Adloquium, this action will give addition healing power for the amount of the effect of the barrier.

New action: Dissipation
With this action, you dismiss your fairy in exchange for magic power.

All we really know is that one won't be able to stance dance. Scholars will have to think carefully about when to use it. It's also not clear if and where aetherflow stacks might play into it.

However, I really doubt SCHs are getting a 'win everything' button. The tone of the presentation has always been... well, I'll just emphasize this line: we made adjustments by adding actions that require you to really think about their use and the best time to utilize them.
