PVP General Discussion

I think you're overrating Stoneskin, all it does give an initial health boost. Once enough damage has been given, they're gone. Only stupid scholars would have them at lvl30.

And don't talk as if scholar's spells can't be interrupted. Scholars have to burn swiftcast/surecast in order to have a successful heals too.

It's only a minor advantage, true, but it's one of many that add up. 30's is all about zerging heals, as such the initial burst is the most dangerous. That SS ontop of adlo gives you so much more survivability than a whm vs said burst, and once passed, it's a cakewalk for scholar. And no they don't have to burn swift/sure to cast. That adlo shield allows casting while it's up and it can be hard to break in 30's where the dps is quite low.

If you're going to sleep someone, sleep the first Tank/DPS that is making a beeline towards you. This way, I'm sure you can defend yourself against 1Tank+1DPS or 2DPS.

Purify. Eos/selene have no purify. Scholar has no leech in 30's.

That's a silly strategy. Your job is to keep yourself and your party alive. Leave the attacking of the other healer to your Tank/DPS. If they can't kill the other healer, then they suck and it's not your problem.

Your job is to support your party. That includes CC. Taking out eos with swiftcast sleep severely nerfs your opposition scholar for a good 30 seconds, more than enough time to burst them down. And attunement will hardly save them if eos is asleep and can't heal. It's can be very costly to lose that swiftcast though.
