Every expansion this happens. Don't worry, you'll get buffed up to the most overpowered job in the game within a month, and a large portion of the Scholar population will return to telling WHM fans to shut up and "It's not that bad", or (my personal favorite) "job balance will always make one job the best and one the worst, so you can't complain!" The groundhog day vibes are exhausting.

Again, I'm not so much laughing at the plight of Scholar as I am rolling my eyes at players of the dev-designated OP job squawking about "Holy is better than my AOE, NERF it". It tells me that there are a bunch of Scholars who are a little too used to just being better at everything.
I have not seen scholars complaining about potency. I don't really care about the potency of my attacks, I just want an interesting rotation. They could nerf our potencies by 50% but I would still play it if we could get our tools from SB and HW back.
