    The Nouliths at its base is just 4 staves with adderstones to act as an aetheric extension of the sage. Originally, healers use adderstones to setup an aetheric confluence to help aid their healing (basically setting up a formation). Nouliths are just a bit more technologically advanced in its design to be used as an aetheric confluence and a staff as one, but their fundamental concept is still the same.

    From what I see, Sages don't even use their Nouliths to attack, just their fists in their auto attack animation. I guess that implies Sages only use the Nouliths to setup a formation rather than physically whack the enemy and potentially damage their weapon in the process or it could displace their formation. From a technical standpoint, it's different from SCH where the formations are written in the book with enchanted ink and thus are internal formations that just require aether to be drawn out. SGE's Nouliths basically act as aetheric conduits that have to be placed externally as the whole setup itself works as a formation in tandem. If the Nouliths were damaged when colliding into something, they won't work with as much precision, which could invariably affect the formation or aetheric confluence I guess.

    Meanwhile SCH creates an aetheric page with Excogitation from their book and then slaps it on an ally. The foundational principles each go about it makes them very different.

    In short, they're just built different.
