Please give Scholar Bane back now that Sage has their own AoE DoT

The new Chain Stratagem follow-up is cool, but getting one additional damage button every 2 minutes is very disappointing.

Sage is able to apply an AoE DoT whenever they want now with Eukrasian Dyskrasia.

Please give Scholar back Bane so that they can spread their Biolysis DoT, or make the new Chain Stratagem follow-up instead be its own separate skill with a shorter cooldown.

Having one new damage button to press every 2-minutes is not interesting.

Please, more AOE DOTs would be really nice. I miss Bane, and individually DOTing things in a mob on any healer is a pain (so I don't do it that often because it's not worth it). WHM at least gets a stun on top of their AOE, but SCH and AST could use an extra something for mobs too - AOE DOT or some kind of effect like Heavy or something appropriate for SCH's lore as a battle tactician.

And I guess AST already has Earthly Star, which is at least extra damage.

Which we've all seen in the trailer. We've also seen Energy Drain too in the trailer. And Assize.

Hmmm. No surely, they would not dare.

For one, Assize is WHM, which again has a lot of things for dealing with mobs which was kind of my point in wanting an AOE DOT for SCH to have more options, but sorry for not being precise enough with my comment and forgetting about Energy Drain.

Edit: Also Energy Drain is single target anyway, which only helps highlight that SCH literally only has two AOE attack skills - Art of War and Art of War II. SMN has an AOE counterpart to Energy Drain, but SCH does not.
