In 4.0 can we please get rid of caster bars on physical ranged jobs?!

. Maybe I'm old fashioned but...

Look, just because I love Oddish to bits and one all the time doesn't mean I wasn't willing to at least try playing with other Pokemon of the same types instead to see if I enjoy them. Their are too many amazing poison and grass types to choose from that restricting myself just feels silly. Otherwise, I would've never realized how awesome Drapion, Crobat, or Whimsicott are!

That's why it bothers me. I've HAD to swap mains with 3.0, too, and I know I'm not the only one who did so. Scholar is borderline impossible on a controller set-up at level 60. I couldn't micro the fairy since I ran out of slots to put her skills on!

So, I tried SMN, DRG, PLD, and eventually landed on AST for a long time. I found another option that was different but still fun.

I play SCH just fine with a controller?
I have 3 and a half crossbars, and it did take some getting used to, but it works... so I wouldn't call it "impossible".

i don't main scholar and i play on keyboard+mouse, but i have it at 60, and the only time i have used emergency tactics and dissipation was on nidhogg extreme, during the last phase - akh morn stacking to be specific - when the WHM died due getting hit with one of the bombs prior.

otherwise those skills are not hotkey'd and are just click skills for me, deployment tactics - i only use this pre-pull and phase changes (esp pre-adds phase) so it's off the hotkeys too.

the only thing i have on tap is indom and broil which should be too hard to find a spot in your controller mapping (for two skills) since the fairies themselves never got anything new from 50-60.

so yeah half of the SCH toolkit for HW is very very situational and i suggest you give it another go because you loved the job and for what it is.

same as us here that complain. we love bard and there's no replacement for it for some (maybe til they give us ranger someday). so no matter how much SE decides to screw us over, we stick to the job for what it is.
