Who out there is thinking about playing Scholar as their main job at launch?

I've been a long-time healer/White Mage in FFXIV, and while I enjoy it, I'm looking forward to a new spin on healing, and the Scholar's ability set looks pretty fun. Heals, shields, AOE shields and buffs, and a healing pet that can heal or give buffs either on its own or by your command. Unless some sort of severe bug or imbalance is found that makes Scholars unviable as main healers, that's what I'll be focusing on in group content and for endgame.

If you've got any useful tips to share about the Job as we enter Early Access and the official launch, post them up so we can help Scholars everywhere level up their skills!
