Yeah, the problem with Scholar at the start of SB was that it wasn't OP. SCH players are so used to being far and away the best that they couldn't take it when they actually needed to work a bit to get their job done.

I'm not saying that there weren't things that were wrong with all of the healers at the start of the expansion, but if WHM is fine right now, the SCH certainly could have put up with it's position compared to the other two healers at the start of Stormblood.
