Scholar feels kinda wonky

SCH DPS is objectively higher than its ever been. Baning Bio/Bio 2/Miasma is still weaker than Art of War spam since there's no longer any drop off. Those dots were 20-30 potency each, Art of War is 160 potency. Ruin II is 200 potency now, up from 100 from SB, Dissipation doesn't kill your fairy, so you no longer waste a GCD re-summoning her.

Well, duh. Of course it's higher than it's ever been, we're lvl 80 now. Bio and Misma spread is only weaker than AoW if you don't factor in Miasma 2 which was 100 potency + another 100 potency over time and Shadowflare.

Ruin 2's buff is nice but it only brings it up to the same potency as Miasma 2 was in StB which was always the superior option for weaving back then. Combine that with it only being a 70 potency gain over Broil 3 if you weave in an Energy Drain and an 80 potency loss without ED + the fact that we have less Aetherflow over the course of a fight than we did in StB and you can see the issue.


This isn't to say that SCH is godawful, it's just incredibly uninteresting to play. A lot of it's kit is rarely ever even utilized and spending 5 minutes out of an 8 minutes fight spamming Broil isn't exactly engaging.
