Thread: Seeking SCH and AST 5.0 Guides

There isn't a whole lot to new sch. You get a useless button that heal a tiny amount for 10 fairy guage. 1 extra aetherflow every 90 seconds, and a button to reskin your fairy.

Everything else is literally the same minus the skills they removed.

As how to play it, keep excog on tank, use aoe heal before boss use aoe move. Emergency tactic if your other healer dc'ed. Lustrate to dump aetherflow.

Momo did a nice video on 5.0 SCH in dungeons: https://youtu.be/wE1Ay8mmVB8

I also think his healer optimization video is still relevant in concept.

I like using Emergency Tactics (with Adlo) and Lustrate as the "big heal" akin to Benefic II or Cure II. Since we really don't have a skill that's directly a spammable large heal, those both work really well when someone is lower HP and you want to get them to a safer place quickly. Shields are great when they're HP is higher and you want to prevent further damage, but Lustrate and Emergency Tactics do a great job as just pure, big ST heals. I suppose you could also use Emergency Tactics with with Succor as well if you need a direct, burst AoE heal.

If I need to dump Aetherflow, I usually do so with Sacred Soil - damage prevention on everyone (or at the very least the tank and melee) is much better than wasting a heal that isn't needed. But as of this week's patch we have Energy Drain back so OP can use that for an Aetherflow dump, but I'd suggest only dumping when the Aetherflow CD is back up or almost back up. Just in case something unexpected happens and you actually need those CDs.
