I fail to agree with the "homogenizing it to be like SGE" argument when considering these are all issues that existed in ShB or before, when SGE didn't exist. Is the argument supposed to really be that because SGE doesn't have conflicting skills that lock you out of being able to heal efficiently, that letting SCH not have clunky skills that work against each other is a bad thing? Besides, these buttons are different to begin with; letting Eos cast other faerie heals while using Fey Union isn't going to be "homogenized" to be like Haima, it's just going to allow you to not need to continually target and re-target a party member. There's no upside to having these things not work properly when other healers can do it without fighting against their kit.
Regardless of this though, there's 0 reason that Seraph should not be able to use Fey Blessing. It's not on the Faerie Gauge anymore, so why is Seraph locked out of a faerie heal?
Dissipation does not buff your Aetherflow heals, it buffs your GCD heals. Aetherflow is unaffected by it. SCH uses Dissipation as a DPS cooldown for the extra Energy Drains; if you're trying to heal with Dissipation's Aetherflow stack, Indom, Soil and Excog are likely going to be on CD, meaning it really only gives you more Lustrates.A good part of it is the opportunity it provides them to grow. They have to remember to use their heals such as Whispering Dawn before pressing Dissipation or Fey Union. Dissipation does increase healing potency, so if you urgently need to heal you can spend the extra aetherflow on buffed heals.
Ruin II is just a punishment to use. Worthwhile buttons in a kit should not be negated to "as you get better, you never want to hit this button." Similarly, this is the reason buttons like Physick are also bad. Ruin II was necessary in ShB for SCH to function, and it isn't anymore and has received zero updates or changes.They might be rare, but there are still going to be situations where you need to run for more than 2.5s and stopping to cast for 1.5s would get you killed. Ruin II is still worthwhile.
Oh, but if we're still talking about clunk with Scholar, it should be mentioned that you can't even build faerie gauge while your faerie is Dissipated. Why is this not built through the Scholar instead of relying on your faerie being active? Dissipation locks you out of Energy Drain and all of your Aetherflow heals building gauge. What a great design.
