Scholar... SAY WHUT?

I was extremely excited to play SCH in XI and unlocked it as soon as it was implemented. I found it to be a very complex job requiring a lot of skill and focus to play well. It was an extremely diverse job where you could literally main heal a party almost as well as a WHM, then in that same party - switch to do a BLM level magic burst with the skill chain. Watching players who could play it well was a pretty amazing sight. Personally, I don't want a job that complex again, and it may not be that way in ARR, who knows. It's potential is pretty amazing though. Please look forward to it!

I agree in that watching people play it well was (weirdly) exhilarating! When I finally decided to level it I found it very, very complex, and struggled to grasp it. I left it for a month or so (after I finished levelling BLM) and tried again. After that I grasped it pretty well and it ended up being my most fun job by far! I always preferred it in party situations (except in Abys farming; BLM <3)!

I don't know if it's selfish of me by wanting a job that requires a lot of patience and time to master the mechanics of... but either way, I would LOVE it to be SCH again =) I had so much fun with it.

And I loved being a show-off >.>
