Playing SCH is so awkward and bad

[KageTokage]

The "combat required for Aetherflow" thing was done because people oft felt like it was necessary to wait a whole minute before boss pulls so SCH/SMN could start with a full Aetherflow stack and have another ready to go ASAP.

That aside, I've never felt starved for aetherflow outside of when tanks are doing big pulls in dungeons (And Dissipation and their other cooldowns fix that).

As for the faerie, most of its issues can be resolved by using stay to make it sit in the center of a boss arena where it'll be able to generally reach anyone who isn't standing on the very edges.

You can do that now with Dissipation too.

I'm sometime starved, due to not much experience with SCH, but mostly it's the fact that outside of Dissipation you only get 3 casts per 60 seconds.

That's not resolved, that's a workaround, which also implies that you too think that the faerie AI/behavior is pathetic.

...until she is blown all over the place. Being in camouflage mode (not clickable from the party member list and disappearing nametags) it can be ridiculously stressful to see where she is, which leads me to simply send her to the middle blindly - even if she would be there already, which should not be a thing.

This is frankly the worst bit. Sometimes I don’t even realize that she got desummoned somehow and end up halfway through a fight without realizing she’s not there because I’m so used to her being in the party list. Not to mention the fact that I can’t keep track of her. They are adding them back to the party list at least, but I hope they also add in their name tags to be visible at least to the owner of the fairy.
