For AST changes, just potency buff malefic and combust...

Raid DPS is most important because balancing raids has to be their priority. No matter what, all classes can perform well in story/normal content, so they try to balance for high end content, where balance makes a noticeable difference. In the future I wouldn\\'t mind then scaling HP on mobs depending on what job is being used for content.

The reason I didn't want to argue why raids are cornerstone of balance is because we have 100% polar philosophies on that matter. I know well enough why they balance for raids, I just don't agree with it.
At least we can agree on the Draw/Undraw thing.

I don't think SCH\\'s kit revolves around the fairy. Embrace is basically random now. You only use WD, FI, and consolation with seraph. SCH revolves more around Aetherflow than fairy. It always has, by back in the day the fairy was a lot stronger. Even the gauge for SCH is really disappointing.

You have like six skills ordering the fairy around, one skill that sacrifices the fairy for a buff, one skill that transforms the fairy into a better fairy. That's a pretty significant part of SCH's kit. Embrace being random is just a technicality. But Aetherflow is also a not insignificant part of SCH's lore (due to its origins as ACN) so it's not like skills that interact with it don't count.
