    Nailed it.

    A large part of why SCH rarely dealt with MP issues was attributed to so many of our skills being directly tied to Aetherflow stacks. We were using as much mana as we were recharging as our big heals used 0. Couple that with Eos being a permanent and powerful off-healer, and you have an overly powerful job.

    So SE nerfed everything, but did too much.

    Side effects include taking Largesse over Eye for an Eye to cover potency loss, thus making Deployment Tactics wasted space, and furthering the uselessness of Selene, as Eos's heal potency up and regen AoEs grossly outclass Selene's pittly haste and esuna AoEs.

    Deployment Tactics was never about spreading E4E. i only use Eos for learning or when i know the party isn't any good. Selene isn't great but currently you don't really need Eos for anything.

    23 tokens and counting. have i ever solo healed it from beginning to end on SCH? no.

    Susano AOE is easily recoverable with precast Succor, Largesse + Emergency Tactics Succor + Indom. if you need Eos on top of that your other healer is really bad. and like i said if i know the party isn't any good i would use Eos.

    double SCH healed it for like 5 runs too. the other SCH did use Eos.

    It's not about "needing" eos, it's about eos being far more powerful than selene and you basically gimping yourself every time you choose selene over eos (excluding niche fights like Odin), that's assuming you actually manually use her skills, most scholars out there use eos but never ever use her skills.
