Subpar Scholar Guide (Flashing lights warning)

[@neirusalwa]

hi, maya here again for the post release patch notes slight wording issue seraphs passive heal is single target but consolation (the skill u can use when seraph is summoned is aoe), chair skipped straight to consolation when explaining hence why he said seraph does aoe healing "but physis doe" he and i forgot altho in my case its cus im not sure if illu and physis stack or not, in his case he just forgor 💀 also not rly a correction ir whatever but since he didnt mention it : expedient is the same speed as sprint and will overlap with it so dont try to use sprint to go DOUBLE fast lol now lets get out there and complain about how they took fey wind away from us :madge:

[@aeyasera1]

physis and illumination do stack! all of the two forms of healing boosts stack in this game, but "increases healing magic potency" buffs are limited to GCDs and increase the caster's healing, while "HP recovery via healing actions" buffs work with both oGCDs and GCDs, and increase the player's received healing. their limitation is by action type and given/received healing - of course, identical buffs still don't stack. the fountain of fire buff stacks too, but is unique in its function and works with both oGCDs and GCDs, it increases all of the caster's outgoing healing, even working with Seraph and Earthly Star

[@JulieLamia]

Extra note: Protraction is not an Aetherflow skill. It's just a cooldown, and it is beautiful.

[@neirusalwa]

@@aeyasera1 reason i wasnt sure is cus i didnt level sage yet but just knew that there was some mutually exclusive interactions with kerachole and something else so i didnt wanna jump the gun and take a wild guess for physis cus this game is rly fucking weird with wording sometimes, the rest i knew tho reason he used fof footage was cus he cba to find people to actually make the big shield lol (altho he couldve asked me :madge:)

[@neirusalwa]

@@JulieLamia ya he didnt mention it being an af move he just put it arnd af cus it was in the "dungeon healing" section, maybe we shouldve moved it somewhere else in the script cus i also thought it was slightly weird to put it arnd there but i already made him move aetherflow to be at the start of the script so i guess its fine

[@RuneKatashima]

@@neirusalwa I think it's more they give the max move speed. Sprint gives the max of 30% and you can't go higher than that unmounted. It also doesn't stack with Ninja's passive, for example.

[@LucyPyre]

sorry king i tried to watch this video so i could silently judge you in my head for misrepresenting my former main but the moment vanilla was put on the screen my consciousness ascended to a separate plane and literally the only thing i heard this entire video is "my favorite color is purple"

A reminder of the most important part of the Go Fast button: depending on the encounter, it can give you the fabled true combo of forced march into party wipe

[@deatherage9458]

Going fast is great, the faster the dps can run, the faster we can reset the fight to prog again after they inevitably greed a mechanic and all die in unison.

[@eredkaiser]

Going fast is also great when used right before a forced march.

[@chaoschris8194]

The faster the DPS can run, the faster they can run into the wall!

[@krebkrebkreb]

i would buy a shirt that says this so fast…

[@alphawolfnami]

Bruh, I want to understand this so bad. Explain?

[@DeltafangEX]

@@alphawolfnami SCH's Art of War and SGE's Dyskrasia do more damage on two targets than using their single target - which isn't true for ALL jobs, but you'd think people would be able to do basic math by simply reading potency counts on tool tips.

[@LoredanSunstrider]

14:16 you forgot the most important part. Enter unsynced into an ARR raid (coil is alright) to get the 300% epic echo. Cast your mega shield and leave the instance instantly. Now your shield is worth several hundreds of thousands of hp.

[@MelodyoftheAngels]

Wait, Surecast gives immunity to paralysis triggers? This changes everything.

[@Rukdug]

As someone who isn't the best player (average at best), I have been saved by a Scholar's Expedient in every, single, run of an extreme this expansion. Because the best healing is the healing that doesn't need to happen because you were able to avoid the attack in the first place.

[@SalinaMoonfall]

This, is very much a case of common sense not being common.

[@owencampbell1914]

If you ever have a sage cohealer in duty finder content, be sure to waste all your resources on the big shield! They will definitely not spam eukrasian prognosis and overwrite your big shield with tiny ones and make you sad :(

[@chicodepuertorico1450]

LMAO, I made a similar statement on another video. This is so true!

[@alicehiess6508]

It really should prioritize the larger shield also why can’t scholar and sage shields stack when you can stack regens.

[@Skyace13]

It felt like the simpsons meme. “Chair chair say the line!” “Art of war is a gain on 2”

[@MisshapenChair]

Flashing lights at 10:15 ends at 10:25 I do play with all effects turned on, but since I intentionally edited in a strobe effect I might as well warn people.

[@Bronimin]

please pin this comment

[@NuclearRaven13]

Also fun fact, while sch shield does not stack with sge shields, the extra shield from crits will stack with eachother, so the most massive shield will also include Crit Eukrasian Diagnosis and Crit Adloquium for Differential Diagnosis + Catalyzed

[@urfhorf]

If you wanna impress your party with some madlad strats start your rotation with dissipation instead of aetherflow. After you've blasted away your energy drains press aetherflow. Such mana value, wow.

[@koralionheart]

At level 80 content when you have the button that just gives you a crit aetherflow skill you can use most of the aether from the second stack too! (leave one just to be safe)

[@kosbebot6360]

I love mitigating and shielding non-fatal damage.

[@iPlayOnSpica]

Especially in easier content like dungeons, you can make the whole party take 0 damage whereas if the healer is a whm or ast, we would've all taken 30% of our max hp.

[@kiyokiyoko]

I'm leveling scholar and even though it's only 50 right now I already get the "wtf am I doing and wtf are these skills, I could be playing sage right now instead" every duty

[@miamha]

Lemme just add, you can't bene a corpse either, so you better pray it hits the target before they die. Sincerely, a white mage who has watched many people die to a benediction that never hit the target in time.

[@RacoonHand]

Healing looks like something I don't have the emotional resilience to handle, but I watch these videos for the stress and the entertainment.

[@SmokerFace12]

Absolutely give it a try, its super easy 95% of the time and give minor heart attacks the other 5%, wich are worth it (for casual content)

[@firstnamelastname31415]

Good to see you moving up in the world, your manager was extremely professional and provided me the proper motivation required to grant you, Mr. Misshapen Chair, the amount of engagement you deserve.

[@connormcguire484]

Also - remember to summon your fairy AFTER you eat food. Fairy snapshots your stats!

[@Kekira]

You just changed the game for me

[@connormcguire484]

@@Kekira it’s not a long-lasting boost. The fairy re-snapshots every time it’s summoned/dismissed. So summon seraph/dissipation will re-snapshot once they wear off. But it’s a nice boost if you don’t plan on using summon seraph/eat the fairy 🧚‍♀️

[@tcoren1]

@@connormcguire484would it mean that in level 50 content you can get STRONK fairy by popping a pot then summoning her?

[@shingshongshamalama]

Glad to know that some things never change and that being a magical girl is still suffering.

[@GimmeTOKYO]

Holy shit that no fun allowed image sent me back to 1994 as a kid getting the Sonic book it came from.

[@justchill7823]

Also if you want a bigger shield, summon Seraph, wait till 8 seconds left before using Fey Illumination, followed by your Seraph AoE, pot, recitation, pro, eat fairy, Adlo, Deployment. Assuming you have a food buff that is

[@goukagrimm8773]

Watched despite playing Scholar on the side and it's good to see another Selene scholar.

[@Kekira]

As a SCH/SMN main, I approve this message.

[@0NBalfa0]

we were doing fat shields in TEA (we were focusing LL and shielding through Hand of Pain). I would minne the scholar, we would also have the dancer snapshot improv, scholar would shield, astro would neutral shield, toss shield samba, caster mitig, and the pld shield and we were with shields greater than our health bars every pull only to drop to a shrivel of hp right after. dps check was tight and somewhat rng dependant because double physical ranged but overall, we were just passing it.

[@katkelley9085]

Best scholar guide ever! Thanks Chair!

[@Zakon673]

The fact everyone thought that Expedient was going to be a joke is hilarious to me. Try telling a WoW veteran that a class in FFXIV got Stampeding Roar, except it lasts 20 seconds and gives a 10% damage reduction. They'd think the devs are out of their minds. The only thing that keeps it in balance is that every boss encounter in ff14 takes place in a circle or square arena, so there's less room to abuse how busted it actually could potentially be with different fight mechanics that take up a larger arena.

[@GeneralCane]

"You can't eat Seraph because she's dummy thicc" 😂

[@BelZoness]

I am so glad to see there are other Selene users out there

[@TenshizakiN008]

Those of us who use Selene notice each other. We see each other from across the boarding gate and wave. We never say anything, but we know.

[@fardin.fkr3]

Since i didn't see it get mentioned to my knowledge if you use deployment tactics on a crit shield while you may not pass catalyze to your party, the galvanize that they get is better than a normal galvanize. That's probably why they made both deployment tactics and recitation cds 90 secs so you can use them both together for extra shields

[@duo1666]

Whoa whoa whoa, Ive played Dark Knight. You can, in fact, cast regen on a corpse. Just.... preferably a benediction as well. Please. Im begging you.

[@krebkrebkreb]

As a SCH main with photosensitive epilepsy I am both thrilled by the warning and disappointed I cannot watch this video 😆

[@tcoren1]

The flashing lights warning was for 10:15 to 10:25, maybe skip that part?

[@TaínoN8iv]

Can't u reduce effect into mild or half instead full from the setting?

[@Er404ChannelNotFound]

You forgot Warrior's Shake it Off. It does consume Thrill of Battle if activated afterwards but you can use it before it to avoid that.

[@azuredragon8388]

Now let’s get out there and realize we got Sch to 90 when we leveled Smn and have no idea how to play it now so we watch misshapen chair

[@AzuraThePanda]

Quality Content has gotten even better. Just comparing to previous scholar video, Chair has improved a lot.

[@MrPistoleroGun]

Fellow Selene enjoyer :3 I wish we could get Selene's kit back though, was a very fun little gameplay change for when you didn't want heals but pure damage. Kinda like a built-in cleric stance (bonus point if you know what it is).

[@uhhmary]

To continue with giga shields sage's haima skills and seraph's consolation are seperate from catalyst, while sage can't stack eukdiagnosis with adlo the crit buff(differential diagnosis or w/e) does so you can do the most inefficient time waste possible of sage fishing for crits with eukdia, then scholar recitation adlo, all the prior shields you mentioned + haima + painhaima(yes they stack) and now I'm not sure if consolation shield would amount to more than fairy eat + adlo or not but do whatever added up to the most

[@dango2917]

The guide I await is the misshapen controller guide.

[@RagnellAvalon]

rewatching this and I just remembered that image of that one guy who was bitching the healer out because "Sacred Soil heals mobs"

[@mukakruda8474]

Expedient is such a Chaotic Good skill and I love it, my favorite thing to do is to use it just as a forced march is coming out when my party is annoying me so they over shoot and touch death walls, or not avoid the mech. I've always mained AST, but SCH has always been my 2nd fav healer, most the changes may have been QoL, but those QoL changes were so freaking good. The fairy being more responsive and Selene following you after a boss even if you forget to Heel so you don't have to resummon alone were such freaking good changes just by themselves. I love SCH but have also been memeing on it for a while, and it's nice for that to have changed lol

[@gsdlmj3450]

Thank you for this. I have been maining AST since Heavensward released (I took a big break in between), just picked up SCH for fun and it's like I've never healed a day in my life. The difference between shield and regen is intense. Also I accidentally started by favoring Physick as my main healing spam...

[@MrWhybull]

I loved the 13:30 section about the shield. If you start it from ~13:44 it sounds like the beginning of an awesome niche joke. 😂

[@SnthwaveSunset]

As a dual astro and scholar main, i can confirm this guide is 100% accurate on its satire i mean helpful tips

I don't have anything more worthwhile to say so I'll just say I appreciate your content. Have a good day

[@kenny456100]

As i know, Seraph or the fairy get back from seraph effect is end, will stay at where you place it. Only when it return from dissipation would follow you, and need to place it again. 10:24 Did someone accidentally bump into death wall because of the Expedient?

[@TheTriforceDragon]

"Accidentally" implying that us SCH don't deliberately use Expedient to throw of people, especially during forced march mechanics :)

[@AmySay]

I forgot scholar had the Go Fast button until a scholar player popped it during my P4N reclear. I quite literally yelled “WHY ARE WE GOING SO FUCKING FAST?!?!”

[@typemoriarty3898]

I think you can actually get a bigger shield than that if you add a gunbreaker and use hoc while under the effect of brutal shell. That's a very slight increase though, ultimately insignificant but necessary for the biggest shield possible.

[@Kasaaz]

Imagine having to ground target your Kerachole and then hope the Red Mage actually stood inside it? Nightmare!

[@anjoumaaka]

As a sch main, I can honestly say there are times when that big shield combo can save a whm from needing to use their naturally bigger aoe heals. Sewage Deluge being a prime example. Always take a sch with you into P2S cause Sage shields aren't anywhere near as thick.

[@peppermint7152]

Yep, I echo the sentiment. I hated SCH with a burning passion in SHB, but now it's all right.

[@archmagemc3561]

It feels like WHM is the painful healer now, since they have like 2 OGCD heals on long cooldown otherwise they're all GCD heals while all other healers have more OGCD heals AND cheaper heals with the same or better mana regeneration. Cure 2 and the Astro heal are 1000 mana and 800 mana with the same potency for example. And all they'd need to do is make lilies OGCD and WHM would be basically revolutionized but no, they're GCD.... Can't wait for you to get to Dark Knight. The class of endless suffering because your just slightly, slightly tankier than a lancer for a tank. A Class where if you swap to Warrior you suddenly get a god complex because you go from panicking from 2 pulls to doing wall to wall pulls on Mt. Ulmong and laughing as nothing can even scratch you. Like seriously how do the tanks have this level of disparity betwene them!

[@chef416]

Damn I fucking love Scholar

[@RicardoSantos-oz3uj]

Shields are specially good when the MT died and the off tank was not paying attention, so the DPS that was dealing the better job gets a tank buster. Without the shield the DPS will die to no fault of his own.
