Lucid Dreaming is not viable due to the 2 minute CD.

Lucid Dreaming is a 1 minute cooldown now, it's completely viable.

If I'm understanding right, Selene has no unique traits from Eos? Like I don't see Fey Wind anymore.

They're basically just skins of each other right now. But they can't take them out because Selene does have a role to play in the SCH storyline.

After clearing Titania a few times I'm really wondering when or rather if we're going to see any increase in healing required to clear content. I would guess that even solo healing that wouldn't make use of your full healing kit. So what do you do most of the time if not spam Broil? The only time you get low in mana is when you have to scrape people off the floor or forget in the monotony that you have to use your MP refresh abilities. The unused aetherflow stacks are my personal favourite, thanks for that SE.


Being able to spread Adlo from yourself is a welcome QoL update. The increased focus on faerie abilities with aoe heal and the new summon Seraph is great imo, now we just need some content that makes use of all of this, perhaps even outside of savage.

To see fairy's name:

Settings -> Character -> Control -> Target -> Untick "Disable targetting of pets and minions when in battle".

WOOT< thank you

One of the things I always used as a metric was Adlo. At current gear levels for whatever content I was running, it was roughly a 10% shield. This is no longer the case. With Tanks running 111Kish HP my standard Adlo (440 weapon and gear) runs ~9500.

To me, it just seems really weak.

after getting to 80, my thoughts on SCH aren't that different.

-Seraph feels unimpactful. I feel like she should be around for longer to matter more. still a nice ability but i find myself pressing it just to use the skill more than not. Plus seraph's version of Fey Illum and Whispering Dawn are just... regular Whispering and Illumination. Nani?
-Recitation is still amazing.
-Sacred Soil is good now to burn often for the regen and fluff mitigation
-Energy Drain and/or Quickened Aetherflow please.
-remove the combat lock on aetherflow. "but muh pre-pull waiting" you can use recitation for a free excog now, so that's already one boon.
-DPS is pitiful. I miss being able to multi-dot on SCH. I still cannot believe all healers went this route instead of AST getting an AoE DoT.

!- Make the skills display what they do for the fairy, and not just "orders pet to use [X]." This is such a silly thing I dont even get what rationale went into this decision.

This was the only class I felt half-way decent at, as I'm not a hardcore gamer or anything. And they've ruined it for me with all these changes. I'd tried to make adjustments, but nothing I'm used to is there to use anymore, and since they have dungeons tied to the MSQ, I can't even progress through the story I just paid them for. Why would SE do this? I'm at the end of my rope here, just wanting to enjoy the lore and the tale and I can't get past the first dungeon of this expansion. Why would I spend money on further story content in a couple years when I can't even get to that point in the story now?

Have you tried using a Trust? If you are doing the MSQ for the first time then after the notice that the dungeon instance is open the Scions will be standing around with symbols over their heads. Click any of them and it opens the Trust window and you can do the dungeon with them. You can also practice it/your new skills by clicking on the Duty tab then Trust. You get to set the pace, and no one is angry if you wipe. I am using Trust to learn/relearn things on jobs as well as practice some of the new content.

Waiting to use Whispering Dawn and Fey illumination under the affect of Seraph really need to be buffed because right now they're the exact same thing. Seraph needs to be STRONG. It's supposed to be a capstone ability, but Dissipation was never really strong either.
