Some Sage Discussion

Personally, in regards to Addersgall, what I would like to see is that if you are in battle, the gauge keeps filling if you are at 3 (if you are not in battle and you have 3, it stops filling, and if you aren't at 3, it fills regardless of battle state). If it fills and you still are at 3 Addersgall, you just get the mp Regen and the gauge empties.

Doesn't completely punish you if you don't need healing, but you still actively use it only if you want healing.

Imo the addersgall replenishing early makes me use Kerachole earlier than the rest of my toolkit. If I need more mitigation, I'd use Holos or rotate after Kerachole expires with Taurochole. I actually like that aspect about Sages the most.

Normally for Scholars, they'd use Recitation + Excog, or just throw up an Excog if they're saving Excog for Indom since Aetherflow runs on a different resource generation timer.
For Sage, I'm currently using Kerachole first, to both slow damage and to keep addersgall regenerating within the next 20 seconds. Then if I need to use 2-3 addersgall for quick burst healing succession, I can immediately pop Rizomata afterwards. The order of Sage's toolkit works slightly different and I like that because it keeps a very steady and rhythmic healing pace going.
