    Scholar Changes
    Miasma is back.
    Shadow Flare is back.
    Bane is back, allowing Scholar to spread their DoTs.
    Chain Stratagem is now spreadable as well for AoE situations.
    Scholar now has a semi-spammable mini-fester in the form of Putrefy.
    Scholar now has a supportive faerie gauge spender in the form of Fey Frenzy.
    Dissipation is now on a 2 minute cooldown. Now changes Fey Illumination to Fey Divination and Whispering Dawn to Fey Fury. These abilities do not share a cooldown with each other, just buttons, to avoid bloat.

    New Scholar Abilities
    Miasma - GCD 30 second DoT.
    Shadow Flare - OGCD damages and slows all enemies in an area for 15 seconds. 60 second cooldown.
    Putrefy - GCD deals damage with a potency of 200-400 to a target, and half this amount to surrounding targets. Potency is enhanced based on the number of the caster's DoTs on the target. 30 second cooldown.
    Fey Frenzy - OGCD ability, costs 10 Faerie Gauge to apply a 10% cast/recast reduction to all party members for 10 seconds. 60 second cooldown.

    Fey Divination and Fey Fury can only be used while under the effect of Dissipation... These abilities do not share a cooldown with Fey Illumination/Whispering Dawn but they do replace the buttons.
    Fey Divination - Increases critical hit rate of party by 10% for 15 seconds. Can only be used once during Dissipation
    Fey Fury - Deals 350 potency and applies a 5% vulnerability debuff in an AoE for 15 seconds. Can only be used once during Dissipation

    Scholar Breakdown

    Scholar is now the unofficial DoT class of the game, able to set them up, spread them, and maintain them easily. Putrefy gives more variety and synergy in your rotation, and is DPS positive as long as you maintain your DoTs. Chain Stratagem is useful outside of single target scenarios. Dissipation is now an intrinsic part of your toolkit and allows for more "battle tactician" flavor. With these changes you will be applying DoTs, keeping them rolling with Putrify, and swapping into Dissipation to unlock your full supportive potential! It's a big bag of tricks but if you can make it all work, you'll have some amazing output.
