Boring design

I guess it's time to introduce Addendum: Black and Addendum: White on SCH so when addendum: black is active, broil iv becomes broil v, etc while being in addendum: white increases the barrier given by adlo and succor, etc.

I would LOVE to have FFXIV's scholar take some inspiration from the FFXI iteration. Stance dancing with addendums, kaustra/embrava, helixes, actual stratagems. So much stuff, so many varied mechanics.

Could you elaborate on what some of those do?

The scholar in FFXI has access to 2 "stances" , Light Arts and Dark Arts, which basically allow them to use certain advanced buffs/heals or debuffs/offensive magic. Each stance also lets them access specific stratagems which act as a metamagic of sorts. Much like "Recitation" or "Emergency Tacticts", the FFXI stratagems modify the next spell you cast, expanding its range, duration or potency. Stratagems are consumed and they recharge at a fixed rate (Kind of like lillies but with a much longer CD)

Helixes are a type of magic exclusive to the Scholar. Basically a type of elemental offensive spell that gets stronger depending on the type of weather in the zone. I believe scholar also gets access to a spell to change the weather.
Kaustra is a super expensive, super strong DoT.
Embrava is a super expensive HoT that gradually restores target party member's HP and MP, increases attack speed and ranged attack speed.
