Simple fixes for Astrologian

[Vlady]

Noc AST was meant to substitute SCH. Noc AST is trash and SCH is OP, it's a fact.
The fact that SCH have a fairy is enough reasoning not to bring Noc AST, but even without fairy SCH would probably be better than Noc AST as an off healer.

This statement basically invalidates your entire opinion. Being able to bring the unique duality of offensive dps that is mana neutral and the buffer of its shield is what makes the scholar unable to trully be shifted with the astrologian. Forcing healers to provide strong dps in tight damage dealing requirements was the first mistake of SE and the scholar brings mana neutral damage while hitting pretty hard. Weaken drain or make the spells more costly would go far in fixing scholars.

Well if we were to increase MP damage costs. Would you bring SCH over a Noc AST? I'd probably do it. They still have the fairy, they still have the instant heals, they still have adlo crit. They would just DPS a bit less.
You try to invalidate my opinion when you are the one that forget that SCH brings more things than DPS and the one that forget that SMN still exists and nerfing those damage spells would nerf SMN too.
