  1. My current impression is that in dungeons I prefer SGE for the extra damage i can put out for the trash packs with Phlegma/Toxicon/etc. in 8-mans i prefer SCH for the stronger shields and the utility of Chain and Expedience. I'm definitely a "barrier healer" main as opposed to a SCH or a SGE main this expansion.

  2. I'm currently leveling all of my main job (healers and magic DPS) up to level 70 so I can do the post content of Stormblood with them and I'm currently leveling Scholar right now. I have to say, the 1.5 cast time and the improved fairy responsiveness are by far some of the biggest quality of life improvements they made so far and it really makes the job flow a lot better the before. I also like that they kept the fairy intact so long ranged remote healing is still an option, and the healing from the fairy doesn't get weaker by that debuff you get if you revive after dying which is nice.

    I don't have much to say about the new abilities as I'm not even close to the endgame content yet, but I heard good things about them despite people's first impressions and memeing on the speed boost ability.

    The only thing I like to tweaked a bit is Dissipation, I wish the healing boost it gives effects ALL healing rather then just the few GCD heals Scholar has. it would make it far more worth losing a part of your healing kit… but maybe I'm just not really that good at the job yet so I tend to have a hard time finding the right time to use this ability.

    Aside from that I've been liking Scholar a lot along with Astro as my main healer, I have yet to try out SGE but it looks very fun. I probably see myself mainly playing AST, SCH, and SGE this expansion.

  3. I can't say I was a big fan of the SGE aesthetic, sure its new and flashy and can apply faster shields, I'm just glad SCH had so many QoL changes this expansion. I've been enjoying the buffed shields and faster fairy response lately.
