    Scholar is probably a good pick since it is also a shield-based healer. And if you don't have any casters levelled yet, that gives you two jobs for the effort of one.

    This is my go to strategy each expansion. SMN to do overworld stuff quick, switch to SCH when I need to do a dungeon / trial.

    Completely disagree here. It depends if Aetherflow is up or not. If it is, Lucid > Atherflow and dump 3 Energy drains give you a LOT of MP back very quickly.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    MP is the least of your issues if you die as a SCH. For one thing- hey - where did my fairy go?

    Nocturnal AST instead. Enjoy it while it lasts!
