Scholar main here-
TL;DR Yay WHM! I am all in favor of you guys getting buffed and finally getting some love!
Boooo Scholar nerf x.x give me back more buttons to click because its kinda crap rn
I'm QQing because my class got hella gibbled. Our dps rotation got littled down to just using broil,
the AoE (Art of War) that they gave us to replace Miasma (AoE with DoT) has a higher MP cost, less damage output, no CC, nothing- so unless you're reaaally bored you probably don't click it. (animation is cool tho 10/10). and the biggest thing for me is that we had Aetherflow that we could put stacks into mana regen and also now we have to wait until IN combat to use Aetherflow;
it is glitchy at best, and sometimes the CD greys out before the mob is actually dead which can really screw up your healing.
Our fairy is 100% AI controlled- I am not too bugged by this, however~ she glitches out a lot, sometimes not healing, being desummoned randomly, and sometimes not- we also lost a skill called rouse which boosted her healing which was really nice in tight situations when other CDs got burned or people walked into things they shouldn't. So that 'party trick' is gone now too.
As a Scholar, (main reason I looked at this thread) I wanted to show my support that I DO NOT want WHM to get nerf'd- I am really happy that they got the buffs and dps that they did! (I used to play WHM and it was tricky!) - however, to gibble Scholar like they did was pretty crap. I'm playing it out because I hope they give us back our skills and its less boring. ><
Most of us aren't asking for dps buff or stronger heals to out-do WHM- we just want our utility back, and to feel exciting again.
edit: I picked Scholar with the understanding WHM was the stronger healer, but that scholar was a little more advanced with DoTs/Shields, kinda a harder healer, but engaging since I came from playing BDO (reee night and day let me tell you!).
