    I must just be a bad then as Whispering Dawn is still a heavily relied upon part of my kit.

    I think if Selene's haste could increase to the 5% buff that an AoE Arrow card has, and keep it's larger 20y range, I might feel comfortable swapping back to maining Selene. With our access to Esuna at low levels, now, Selene's niche shrank even further.


    But, most Scholars using Selene don't really USE Selene. If you actively work to keep her haste going for as much uptime as possible, and can accurately get her silence to hit, Selene could be very useful.

    It's just hard to be a healer without the healer focused pet most of the time.

    It'll get easier as the patch cycle continues, it always does. However I definitely feel now more than ever that Selene is in bad need of some pretty critical buffs. Fey Wind needs to be increased to 5% like you stated and more over Silent Dusk needs to be completely gutted and turned into something useful. How many enemies are there in end game content that can actually be silenced? Almost none and when leveling, the one time it's guaranteed, you're more likely to use Eos simply to free up your hands to DPS. It needs to be another buff, an aoe heal, or something entirely different as right now it's utterly useless on top of a meta that sees Fey Caress likewise all but useless in raids. I've counted ONE debuff I need to instantly remove from the party in all the current raids, and that's Exdeath's single Doom cast. Beyond that it's a wasted skill as most of the debuffs cannot be removed like Susano's paralyze.
