Hello,
I just unlocked Scholar with an alt. When I did it during Shadowbringers as a wee sprout on my main I was a bit confused by the introduction of Eos and Selene as two beings with a different gameplay purpose. Later I learned they explain a no longer existing stance mechanic and the choice is purely cosmetic.
It was a bit weird and occasionally other sprouts were confused about this, too, asking in NN if there is a difference, so it wasn't just a "me" problem. But hey, easily explained.
However, now you don't even have a button for summoning Selene, it's just a glam. Now sprouts get explained a job mechanic they couldn't even enact even if they'd wanted to. xD
For the love of Hydaelyn, please give this a rework so it doesn't explain players gameplay options that have vanished from the game multiple expansions ago! It's fine you don't want to make new job quests because the number of jobs raises every expansion. However, that doesn't mean you should completely neglect and ignore the ones we have unless they are no longer able to be finished at all, like with MCH a while ago.
And while you're at it, please have a look at other class/job quests as well. The changes don't have to be super specific, considering gameplay changes each expansion anyway, but big things like this need to be updated. For example one summoner quest (I don't remember which one) is significantly harder now because the quest expects you to use Titan as a tank. This is also no longer possible, meaning you keep getting attacked unless you have a tank focused battle chocobo to help you out, or a friend who can heal you while you're doing this. It should not be required to go to these lengths for a single mid game job quest. I'm sure there are also other job quests in similar situations.
(Please no discussion about a "decline of Scholar gameplay" or whatever, there are other threads for it. This is simply a feedback thread for the scholar job quest.)
