Meoni Interview with Yoshida- Sage vs. Scholar

[Reiryuu]

Meoni asked Yoshida about the flashiness of Sage and the short talk time about Scholar and wondering if Yoshida had anything planned for Scholar to make Scholar players not feel left out.

Yoshida basically apologized for that saying it was his fault... more in the video. There was quite a bit of back and forth with the interpreter.

I do hope they at least got the catalyze/galvanize order swapped so that you can deploy a shield that actually exists, since between galvanize being "on top" and the forced delay between applying a shield and being able to successfully deploy it, it tends to get hammered into nothing.

There is no delay anymore. You can shield and deploy right away now.

now THATs interesting.

anyone else notice how he didn't actually answer the question

[EaMett]

So nothing new since "there wasn't much the players weren't satisfied with [regarding scholar]".

I don't get it, should we get upset at whoever the community manager is? What gives?

[Eloah]

Honestly, meme'd skill aside, it would of been nice if they at least addressed the issues with the 60, 70, and 80 skills, specifically Dissipation. Also, why a movement speed boost and not an skill/spell speed boost?

Additionally, it looks like SCH and SGE will be inversions of one another. SCH shields by default and needs another skill to produce a pure heal (Emergency Tactics). Whereas, SGE has pure heals by default and uses another skill to produce a shield (Eukrasia). But, shouldn't ET be adjusted to be more in line with Eukrasia; a shorter CD and given at a lower level. Also SCH is still the only healer without an AoE heal below level 20.

I mean scholars are only really complaining about

All their dots being stripped
All their debuffs being stripped
Most of their utility stripped
Missing selene
Unresponsive fairy
ghosting fairy
poor fairy embrace ai and lack of manual embrace
Being locked out of their kit on dissipation
Being locked out of their kit when seraph is using the fae tether
Bane and shadowflare missing
Energy drain constantly getting taken away
Energy drain constantly being nerfed
Potencies being nerfed with no thought given to content where those potencies are important (ie ucob and uwu)
silly animations like art of war
lack of damage causing mobs to take forever to kill
terrible levelling kit

and more but i have barely touched sch so i can't really comment further.

Curious how this is possible? It's still two buttons.

Yeah i am confused Adlo and then Deployment tactics - well Recitation, Adlo and then DT for guaranteed crit unless I am doing something wrong?
