Scholar Fixes

[Supersun]

You actually made me look through the parses of Susano and Lakshmi, most of the parses have a healing distribution of ~55% AST ~45% SCH. I looked at my own parses and they usually are close to 50/50 spread too (WHM/SCH).

I looked at a good number as well and they all fell into 40/60 to 45/55.

A 40/60 spread is in fact +50% more healing.

Their healing kit didn't change all that much since HW (except the loss of Virus)

...are you serious?..

You mean besides the fact that they took a baseball bat to both Aldoquiem, the Fairy, and Scholar's MP regeneration? Like, all the things that made Scholar amazing in HW...

Does Whm let you ignore mechanics with shields? Of course not, because Whm doesn't have shields and the other healer, either Sch or Ast will provide those shields. The only problem being that Ast's shield is not only cheaper than Scholar's shield, but when they both crit are actually about equal strength (and Ast's murder's Sch when they don't crit.)

Does Whm have groupwide mitigation? No, they just have AoE regens galore and Cure III. I'll tell you a secret about Sacred Soil, it's pointless unless people are in danger of being 1 shotted and that extra 10% DR saves someone because an Indom will heal a heck of a lot more HP after the AoE than a Soil wouild have prevented. So let's rephrase this question...does Whm have amazing AoE healing because Scholar will be using their stacks on Indom instead of Sacred Soil 99% of the time....oh yeah.

Does Whm have healing that requires 0 MP and 0 GCDs? Benediction, Tetra, Assize, Assylum, ect... Let's ask a better question? Does Scholar have a Cure II? Can Scholar cast that Cure II for free every so often? Can Scholar cast a free Stoneskin after that Cure II. Oh right, Scholars are stuck spamming Physic...
