Is Scholar supposed to be this strangely inconvenient?

Start with Protect in the first slot followed by Aero, Swiftcast, Cleric Stance, Stoneskin.

After Protect has been cast, remove it and Cleric Stance.

Place Cleric Stance in Protect's old slot. This will only stop you from using Cleric Stance for 5 seconds and not put anything else in CD. Put protect back in its place after your dungeon is over. :3

(For some reason, I had Cleric Stance in the first slot??? I don't even use it.)

Consider your faerie can solo-heal low level dungeons like you were in, you may want to consider heavy use of cleric stance.

[AskaRay]

No need for a flame shield because she's right.

You activate Clerics stance and then remove it from your bar because you never need to actually deactivate it in a low level dungeon :P

If you remove it from your Cross Class, it's canceled.
If you really want some switch out, start with Protect and switch out CS.

Or be lazy like me and don't even bother casting Protect, you don't need it in Sastasha, Tam-tara, and the Mines anyway.

[DarthVella]

I prefer to keep Protect in the first slot and CS in the second. Either way, you're only affected up to 20 and the difference is all but negligible.

If you remove it from your Cross Class, it's canceled.

Cleric Stance can't be canceled without a) changing job/sync or b) firing the ability a second time. If you use it and then unslot it for, say, Stoneskin or Blizzard II, you keep the buff, and cannot deactivate it until you slot it again.

That's crazy weird

Still not worth the hassle of not being able to use skills for 30 seconds...that's just my opinion though.

When level sync'd you have access to the skills you would have had at that level. So 22 for resurrection, you don't get to backport anything from higher up. The same goes for your cross-class slots, you have as many as you would have at that level so cross-class skill assigned to slots that wouldn't have yet been unlocked are unavailable .

Best piece of advice I have seen I the forums today, I cannot belive I has neglecting something so obvious as cross-class slots order, now I know why that pesky protect didnt wanted to work on guildhests

[Fernosaur]

One time I randomly got Sastasha when I was levelling AST and the tank died on the first pull because I put Protect on, switched it for CS, and figured 30 seconds was more than enough time between walking towards the first pull and the first Benefic was needed. The tank died in like 4 seconds before I could do anything lmao. That's the problem in healing low level dungeons, sometimes you get really new tanks with no gear or who are wearing Disciple of War gear instead of tank gear q-q. I apologized and explained, and he also explained he had taken the wrong gear by mistake, so it was no biggie, but it was still really embarassing.

Scholar shouldn't really have that problem, though, so long as you pre-summon Eos before you enter cooldown from switching Cross Class skills.

[Sida]

I just keep CS on the first slot. As I had to tell (and demonstrate) on some group, at least on SCH the fairy can nearly soloheal the place even without protect and it still had downtime. Same goes for other healer classes, even without Protect on, healing the lowest level places isn't exactly taxing. So I don't bother to go through the hassle of switching it if I happen to chance to the ones with only one slot.

[DoUrden]

In which case just autotranslate "Hall of the Novice" at them.

Please don't. I left playing WoW quite some time ago because of all of the people with that sort of attitude.
If someone is making a mistake step one is to offer them helpful advice on it, not name call them. They are often more likely to then consider that advice, and if they do it makes it better then next time around for people that group with them. Likewise if others do the same to be helpful it then you and I and others are less likely to encounter the same issue repeating.
