We know GCD is 1.5s now. That's enough for identity to be gone.
It's going to be a nuisance in most cases. You think they'd have learned from the group Sprint in Bozja, which only served to kill half your group when popped unexpectedly, because people slightly overshot the safe spot and ran over the edge or into fire.
In the hardest content, you'd coordinate it, but otherwise an unexpected burst of speed when navigating delicate movement for a mechanic can be dangerous.
I'm not saying movement speed is the best thing every but how you can turn a buff into something negative is quite impressive. lol
I fully intend to level SMN as my first job and only queue as a SCH for the mandatory 5 dungeons to reach lvl 90 and then never touch it again.
If the Devs don't care about SCH, why should I?
This is coming from someone who mained SCH from 2.0 - 5.0. Was extremely disappointed with the 5.0 changes and rarely played SCH.
This is basically the straw that broke my back. I'm done with that job.There wasn't much we could do with Scholar
People don't sprint in dungeon / trial / raid content as it is despite sprint being a FREE movement speed increase.if "raid utility" is peloton, then either it becomes a must-have (which means SCH is an auto-include in any raid), or useless as content would have to be able to be cleared without it (as is already the case). They couldn't imagine reintroducing quickened aetherflow? What about Fey Wind? Or literally any other kind of buff like a parallel to chain stratagem that increases direct hit rate for all allies?

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]
Isn’t there a Forced March mechanic so if some SCH randomly used the speed boost, it could make you walk off the edge or into aoe?
Tower and Hele-something comes to mind.
