Dissipate overpowered?

[Wizarus]

9 Energy Drain opening. Energy Drain DPS check push. Late-game push. That's about it, unless you're a god-tier healer and don't care about termporarily losing your pet for energy drains.

I enjoy using it to make large shields, I'll say at least. While I'll admit it has more fun than practical value there is something immensely statsfying aboutn]

Fey Illumination->Dissipate -> Aldo CRIT to produce 12k+ shield. Especially if you can roll that over into a Deployment tactics. I know this is in no way reliable but seeing a whole bunch of "0s" all over the place for damage just feels so good.

I've also found it useful on a couple occasions when shit just really hits the fan and I just need more instant healing or else.

It's not an amazingly powerful too by any stretch but it's got it's uses. However the Scholar toolkit is otherwise so deep and flexible I find it hard to get too worked up about having 1 or two corner case abilities.

I would love that, however in that case I would also like it to increase critical chance by 50% or something. I would consider it a good skill after that. I can't stand "relying" on luck for a skill.

This is so true. We already arguably have the best healing toolkit, there's no need for a buff to anything else. Plus an ability that shines with situational awareness only further increases the skill required to play this job, so it's one more thing that will make the good Scholars stand out even more. It's far from being a useless ability.
