I would like to see SCH become more of a tactical mage than a fairy mage. More oGCDs that modify/enhance their core GCD spells like Emergency Tactics/Deployment Tactics. Similar to how MCH was reworked from a Gunner to more of a traditional FF-series Machinist. Current fairy skills are rolled into the Strategems as well.

This is my idea for a rebuild.


SCH keeps Aetherflow and its associated skills, but every time they use a stack of Aetherflow, they gain 1 stack of Strategem instead of Faerie Gauge. Similar to how every stack of AF a SMN uses, they gain Aethertrail Atunement. SCH can store up to 5 charges of Strategem and they can use Strategem charges on the following oGCDs.

Strategems
Emergency Tactics: Unchanged.
Deployment Tactics: Unchanged.
Parsimony: Spell MP cost -20% for 10s.
Celerity: 30% Haste for 12 seconds.
Manifestation: Next Ruin becomes Shadow Flare (new animation like Ascian Prime's). Broil becomes Meltdown. Despite names and animations,they're AoE versions of the same spells and associated potencies that make them stronger than Art of War.
Modus Veritas: Bane

New regular oGCDs
Embrava: Whispering Dawn (now also has a weak Refresh effect as well)
Rapture: Fey Illumination
Tranquility: Fey Covenant
Tabula Rasa: Converts 5 Strategem Charges into 3 AF charges; or maybe converts them 1:1 but gives a 30s debuff where you cannot gain any Strategems from using AF. Basically, this replaces Dissipation.
