Troubles with Scholar

[Jukebox12]

I can fit all scholars skills on 2 setbars if you need more than that please tell me why. You exchange role skills why put them them anywhere if you are not going to use them at that second

I suggets a few QoL improvements that can also be applies to other jobs:[LIST][*]Whispering Dawn and Silent Dusk should be merged into the same spell, and show one or the other depending which pet is active.[*]Fey Covenant and Fey Caress should be merged into the same spell as above.[*]Fey Illumination and Fey Wind should be merged into the same spell as above.[*]Embrace should work for either pet. This makes it really clunky to be using two buttons to do the exact same thing.

This can be done with macros in your summons. So I have 3 slots for pet skills and the skills change when I change fairies.

For example my summon (eos) looks like this.

/ac "Summon" <me>
/chotbar pet "Whispering Dawn" eos 4 ra1
/chotbar pet "Fey Illumination" eos 4 ra2
/chotbar pet "Fey Covenent" eos 4 ra3
/macroicon "summon"

And my summon 2 (selene) macro looks like this
/chotbar pet "Fey Wind" selene 4 ra1
/chotbar pet "Fey Caress" selene 4 ra2
/chotbar pet "Silent Dusk" selene 4 ra3
/macroicon "summon II"

This basically puts all 6 pet skills on 3 buttons of my expanded hotbar and automatically swaps them to the correct ones whenever I cast a summon

Embrace should work for either pet. This makes it really clunky to be using two buttons to do the exact same thing.

It already does. I have embrace set to a foot pedal next to my push to talk button so whenever I hit the pedal it casts embrace on the tank.

It's not a particularly bloated class. I play on a controller and have everything on 2 hotbars plus the expanded one.. Even place heal and loldissipation.

You meant 3 right? 2 just covers basic SCH/general skills, no pet abilities or any role skills.

i swear sch feels less and less like a tactial healer and more like a healer with a babysitter

it would be more beneficial and constructive if you explain why you think that way, other than complaining for a job imo is just doing more than fine rn.

I had a few questions with SCH! I haven't mained SCH in a whillllee and I remember back then it used to be selene that was always the go to fairy, but now its Eos? Also I'm having a really hard time keeping my tank at good hp AND managing my MP. Now at lvl 70 as a SCH I usually put Exogigation (sp?) and a Adlo shield on them, and its usually good for mitigating damage but putting adlo shields back on is so costly that I end up really low on MP.

So whats the playstyle with SCH nowadays?

Let your fairy, fey union, excog do the most of the tank healing (occasional ET). Anything else delegate to your co-healer.

No 2 derp :d zzz

[Ordoric]

can we please just kill the pet healer and focus on more tactical heals and damage

Sch has 27 abilities if you don't count the ones that change with traits like Broil and Broil2. Then you have 5 role skills. 32 skills is two full hot bars for me on a game pad. That doesnt include Sprint, Limit Break, or any Fairy Actions although Fairy Skills can be used from the special toggle Hotbar specifically for pets. Im struggling to understand how just 2 hot bars carries all your skills as Scholar. Do the Key Board and Mouse Hot bars have more than 16 slots?
