Allow use of all learned skills (at lower efficiency) if level synched...

Then use your fairy?? Not sure if serious.

A lot of Scholars have tunnel vision, forgetting that Selene exists or that she can remove status effects. I know I did when I was first leveling Scholar. You get into a habit of leaning on Eos, and forget that Selene brings other things to the table. Eos let's you double up as DPS which you're kind of used to coming from Arcanist.

To be fair, Fey Caress was just put in with 3.0 so people that leveled SCH before that had the issue with Leeches.

Not to mention the cooldown on it.

Yeah I'm a SCH main and I never touch Eos unless I'm in an 8-man with another SCH using Selene. I never really find much need for Eos' extra healing and I still have a ton of time to DPS when playing fine. I think a lot of SCH just see that Eos has a lot of healing power (even if unneccessary for a good Sch in most situations) and dont even think about what Selene can do

For some reason, to this day I prefer Eos (even though I think Selene is prettier).

It hits multiple plyers at one though, doesn't it? Offsetting the cooldown

What difference does that make if the mob keeps applying the debuff? Good examples are the CC worm and the dragon in Brayflox.

I'd hope that you're not gonna just wait till everyone in the party has the debuff ticking to remove it.

Huh? How do you get to that from what I posted?

Because you said that the fact that it's an AoE offsets the cooldown, but the only time that it being an AoE would really factor in would be if more than one person had the debuff. If you only need to cleanse one player and you use it, then the mob debuffs a second player, it leaves you healing through DoTs on them (and possibly a third depending on how often the mob uses the debuff).

That's a much better way of putting it, and I understood that already, I was only suggesting that the longer cooldown wss probably there to offset the AoE nature if the effect. I wasn' sugestting that you'd use it as a direct replacement for leeches, since it hits multiple players, you'll only use it when mutliple people have the same debuff(s).

Sorry, I may not have been clear, and wasn't looking to argue with you at all. I'm kinda embarassed myself for neglecting to use Selene so often, but I have slowly learned to do better.

there is no issues without leeches...you can use instead Adlo, it nullifies the poisonous effect , even against teh last boss in Bray NM you use that one you dont need leech at all and does an excellent job up 4 stacks depending on which tank is affected mostly.

At later stage of course is another story

BTW I am totally against this idea, people want fast runs with all the advantage and just gain tokens to go faster. You want a lower roulette you go with it and with the disadvantage to go back to be a beginner.
