As a former Scholar main who still feels kind of attached to the class, I'm not sure 5.x Scholar has anything better to offer.

Sleeve draw rework is baffling to do divination in opener you will now need to do 30s prepull so you have a card drawn and draw comes off cd but they removed this for classes like sch with prepull aetherflow so its a very very strange change and i doubt se thought it all the way through.

My suggested alternative 5.3 patch changes:

SCH

Bring back Miasma
Replace Art of War with Miasma II (but I can compromise and keep AoW)

WHM

Bring back Aero III, and preferably add an upgrade to Tornado , its animation exists already.

AST

Same changes but less heavy handed on the MP buffs. Maybe 8% on sleeve draw and leave it like that.

And with these changes reduce Sleeve Draw's recast to 8%


You get a less clunky sleeve draw.
Instead of bringing down AST's rDPS you bring up SCH and WHM's.

You give a little back to WHM and SCH to break up some of the monotony.

Not the rigorous changes I think are needed (I expect 6.0) but are small changes to make that would offer a little something more in the mean time.
