    And i swear to god... if i see another "adol is weaker then aspect benefit" i will slap u with my deck of cards

    Sch can change adol to benefit the situation large aoe dmg incoming? No problem sacred soil+adol+deployment tactics

    "But its on cooldown"

    So what it still wrecks ast raid mitigation

    Every scholar i seen on the forum always make this silly excuses

    "It require aetherflow stacks"
    "It have a cooldown"
    "You got regains" - not in noct sect
    "You got cards" -you have fairy
    "You have better mp" - which also can be apply to u

    I want someone to do a math for a 3min fight by compare sch and ast.... u will find out sch will destroy ast in the mitigation department

I've almost never seen it be useful in 4.0 content in spite of liberal testing as the other abilities are simply far better, especially with our nerfed status from before. Now that aetherflow has been buffed it might be actually viable again, but prior to this patch it might as well have not belonged on your hotbar at all. Also the 'you have a faerie' thing is kind of silly given the fact that they nerfed their base potencies to account for Fey Union which is pretty useless given the draw backs and that even then without it our potencies are garbage. Without the faerie, SCH's have almost no potency at all and that's how it's always been balanced. Plus anyone whose actually played the class can tell you stories upon stories of their horrible AI, particularly for Eos who seems to only respond when she pleases or five seconds too late.

    Also people have done the math, Noct stance was far /FAR/ better than SCH in every way shape and form. It still is, except that now Sacred Soil is somewhat usable. However that didn't change the fact that if an AST decided to stay in Noct stance this expansion, you literally could not tell them to switch because they did your one gimmick better than you could hope for. (That instant cast, CHEAPER, and higher potency benefic being the chief reason.)
