the more I think about this the more I actually start asking myself why they even put the restriction on aetherflow for being out of combat only.
from what I read it was to stop parties from waiting before a fight so scholar could get his AF going into it and perhaps more, if that's even the case why not leave it as it was and just add the effect of Dissipation as it is now?

Course i could be wrong so I'm gonna ask here, does anyone have the reason why they even added this limitation of AF to begin with? If i knew more about the reason i would probably be able to give a more detailed response to this situation. Sorry if its seems really off topic but it feels like this question probably belongs here rather than different discussions.
