Scholar Trait - Shield Efficiency

[FoxyAreku]

Just a random thought I had.

Shield Efficiency
Every minute (or maybe even 2 minutes?), Adloquiem is guaranteed to crit.

I don't think it would be OP, and it would solve the annoyance in raiding of having to wait for a crit>spread at the start of some fights. What do people think?

I'd like to see a small buff to their shields, but I'm not an advocate of guaranteed crits on Scholar. I can apply a spread crit Adlo at the start of Neo Exdeath amounting to a shield of just over 36k (with buffs), which completely nullifies Almagest and mitigates the first tick or two. Crit Adlo is still extremely strong and should only ever be down to luck.

If you could guarantee that level of mitigation for mechanics in fights, it would be a little too much.

The likely side effect of guaranteed crit aldo would be a nerf to crit aldo's effectiveness, because being able to predict it would nullify an awful lot of big incoming damage moments that AST and WHM would have to heal through.

Yeah I'd be okay with a potency lowering if we got this, though others may not be.
