    But, the job goes against itself in many ways. Firstly with dissipation locking you out of your faery and faery gauge for 30 seconds. Not being able to control who your faery cast embrace on. Selene has been nuked as well.

    All I wanna know SE is when is SCH’s turn for a major rework? Yoshi P even said during Endwalkers job actions video that they have no idea what to do with scholar now. If they can say this then maybe it’s time to rework the job.

    What does my fellow warriors of light think? Especially my other scholar mains out there.
    SCH's are still actively being punished from the perception that in 2.0 they were "overpowered" when they simply had a complete kit at that time. Most healers now, have all the tools that SCH's had then (a mix of barrier and regen).

    It's ridiculous.

    Combined with the fact that in the 6.0 pre patch live letter the devs literally said (paraphrasing) "We don't know how to improve scholar anymore / we don't know what to do with them"

    Now it just feels like an in-cohesive box of disjointed and disorganised systems all lumped in together. I'd be well up for an overhaul at this stage.
    Kardia is essentially our old Embrace macros that they took away from SCH.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
