I'm so glad people are becoming so vocal about how poorly scholar macros work. If you are healing intensive content that gcd Eos lost healing herself instead of low hp dps is felt. The other issue is, just like with any class, macros on your attack spells prevent you from queuing each spell. This causes a slight lag or delay between each spell and is an overall dps loss.

Edit: One thing I never see mentioned, for controller there is a target assist. Makes it really easy to throw out lustrates when dpsing.

100% this - if you say dps is great, why remove your spell queueing abilities? Healing at 80% rarely feels risky to me. I usually tell eos to stay close by the tank and she does well at keeping them up (in dungeons). Also, I made it so when I press the right analog stick, I target my target's target - works great for lustrates and healing other tanks in alliances.
