SCH oddities

[Recon1o6]

Not that I disagree with you about Seraph being a somewhat rebalanced version of old Rouse but some of your data are incorrect and doesn't belong to SHB adjustment.

2.0-3.5 : Embrace = 300 Pot
4.0-4.5 = Embrace = 250 Pot
5.0 = Embrace 150 Pot.

They gradually nerfed it.

Same goes for Fey Illumination. The nerf to 10% has been made in Stormblood while Scholar gained Largess.
As for Whispering Dawn, its initial potency from 2.0 to 4.3 was 100, could be boosted by Rouse. In the patch when they fixed Fairy responsivness, you couldn't pair rouse with WD anymore, but the base potency were raise at 120 in exchange for that nerf.

So, I agree and dislike what have been done with Scholar, but every fairy nerf don't belong to SHB alone.

I thought I missed a nerf somewhere with the embrace. Serves me right for looking at 1am in the morning
That old whispering dawn is still a step up if you compare rouse to seraph, rouse granted an equivalent of 140 potency at its weakest, which is better than seraph which doesn't change.

The current fey illunimation did take its weaker defence buff from eos' older skill. Being lowered from 20% to 5% is a nasty nerf.


Some days I regret not levelling sch past 50 on my alt. I think I would have liked it at 70.
