Some Ideas for Scholar

[Semirhage]

Embrace is two thousand healing potency per minute. It requires neither MP, nor GCD, nor weave slot to keep it going. Being able to target it again would be a big help, but a dramatic buff to potency? It's got almost double the healing efficiency that Excog does. It's 2.5 Excogs per minute. Embrace isn't weak by any stretch of the imagination. It's just not hilariously, unbelievably overpowered like it was in previous expansions. Just because the individual numbers look small, doesn't mean it's "weak".

To be fair, heals you have no control over are significantly weaker than heals you can map or plan. A lot of Embrace healing is unnecessary or wasted. That said, SCH healing and fairy heals are generally fine. Fey blessing is similar to Plenary or plain Horoscope and Aetherpact is a reasonable tank heal. The issue is that SCH pays high tax for weaves and has several abilities that require multiple weave slots to utilize, on top of Fairy abilities being tied to the downsides of pet AI and Dissipation, so those small supplemental heals lose a lot of value.

For SCH the fairy is simply a hindrance, when for a pet class your pet should ideally be your strength.
