I doubt it would. But assuming the Induration does 4k like your screenshot, that's 8kish along with a magic burst. Assuming I can pump off around a 5.5k Blizzard V, MB + Weather might equal around 7kish? Not sure exactly. But still, that's pretty awesome.
**edit** fixed wording >.>
i don't have magician staff and i can pull 5.6k blizzard4 on sch, and around 5.1k when klimaform is down , also sch does get more mp refresh tics than blm with sublimation only (11 ticks) without the need of a rdm...(unlike blm)
even without the need of parsimony sch will still pull better numbers than blm with just ebullience. if you have sch i think u already know this. unless your one of those sch that nukes with no obi/twilight cape/witch sash and using mp rings , nuking in full af3+2 doesn't cut it teal legs are better with vicious mufflers, i never seen any blm outperform my sch on abyssea or outside, a blu can out dd both jobs, but only limits to 1 spell for that

Nah, I'm not one of those people, lol. But to be fair, I haven't really played SCH much since level 80. In Abyssea, where MP is limitless, I just like BLM more because I don't have to spam JAs as much(probably not a good excuse, as I blink the JAs and don't get animation locked in the first place). I'll probably pick my SCH up again and start playing it now that it's not gimp(I went and got some gear to make it not so ugh, lol).
Is it me or did this topic suddenly become an argument that sch's don't need to be any stronger?
with the exception of the need for cure 5, this is true. also in abyssea SCH/RDM will virtually never run out of mp no matter how much work he does, the same cannot be said about BLM/RDM (Seriously who the *** subs sch on blm) inside AND outside abyssea. also a equally geared blm and an equally geared sch, sch will win in terms of damage and DOT, hands down, there is no *** arguing about that.
Honestly Scholars SHOULD get at least Cure V, as it is right now you can use Cure IV without needing to use Addendum: White. But do require Addendum: Black to use IV and V tier nukes. So why not make Cure V and possibly Cure VI available with Addendum: white.
Not sure why you scholars want higher tier cures so bad when you're getting much cooler toys to play with :3
But yar, I understand you want to be versital and all.
You see how it looked like it DoT'd that Akrab? Did like 75% damage, then like 20% more and then finished it off. Or is that just lag?
Your eyes didn't deceive you.
Extremely potent damage off the bat, then severe DoT afterwards (assuming it lives).
Only downside is it is only castable while Tabula Rasa is up; however it works with Manifestation as you saw the the black mandies.
Apparently this spell will be Dark Magic based, meaning you won't need MAB, INT or all that junk; just lots of +skill. Not to mention dark magic is already pretty accurate.
I'm kinda hoping they give some new SCH only spells soon, that don't need Tabula Rasa to be activated. Even if they were only castable in a certain stratagem or something, that would be pretty dope.
Yeah, I think it's the offensive side to the proposed "Bravery" being castable with Tabula Rasa.
I like what I see but alas obviously rather lengthy and conditional.
Strategem conditional spells would be much cooler. That's a great idea actually. Like give a cure spell exclusive to SCH but only works with Rapture. Or a strong *** regen but only with Accession.
This could apply offensively too :3
Does it appear to anyone else that it may not break a hold type spell of Break or Bind? I mean that assumes that the mob is held in the vid in the first place. Would be icing on the cake.
And looks like a new way to cap azure pretty fast at least lol.

Well... can only use it once every 2 hours...
Tabla Rasa >> Merton a ton of crap >> Cap Azure >> Get ISL chests >> ?? >> profit?
But I'm wondering if it's gone cast as fast as the video shows, or if the casting time is going to take upward to a minute (Which is about the duration of tabula rusa). Though if you got tabula rusa on you, there's no reason you can't just load up on stratagems.

WARs often speed up their FC parties with the use of Mighty Strikes then just pop ISLs to refresh their 2hrs.
I wonder if it breaks "Hold" type spells like Break and Bind.
The only problem I see with SCHs getting Cure V would be that outside abyssea, the only difference between a WHM and a SCH would basically be Cureskin. SCH will have an advantage in the MP department as well. As this game evolves to outside abyssea, it would be nice to see WHM have the best cure still (Cure VI is useless outside aby, and very meh inside).
Then again, I have WHM but not SCH, so obviously I'm a little biased. I just think it would be a little unbalanced to have a job that can nuke around the same as BLM and cure just as well as a WHM. SE wants balance, not one job taking over two.
I might have gone a little too far when I said "very meh", so I'll change to to just "meh". The reason why i feel that way, with how I play whm, Cure V almost always is enough. I find throwing around VIs when curing a big group depletes MP way too fast. I get the most use out of VI during cleaves, where I almost have no choice but to V > VI spam.
EDIT: Atmas I use on WHM are MM, Stormbird, Ambition for a total of 20mp/tic
I placed this forum here since I can't make a screen name on the FFXI forum. ><
Not a QQ. Feel free to comment your thoughts on the issues.
This is all my opinion on Scholar and some of my issues on it. Some of these ideas may be close to others ideas so I'm not taking credit for it I'm just trying to get this job back on its feet and point out some ideas.
*Scholar is a strategic mage, so it should be a superior mage job using it strategically*
1.) I agree that SCH does need Cure V or at least something some SCH unique healing spells that can cure more than a simple Cure IV.
- A simple thought: Why not make a Scholar healing spell that is directly enhanced with -Enmity and capable to be modified w/ stratagems. The less enmity the SCH has the more the healing spell will do. This will put the spell Animus Minuo in great effect upon a SCH and also put "Libra" to more usage. I say this spell should be at a tier I-V spell starting from low levels and increasing in tier at certain levels.
2.) The set bonus "Augments Grimoire" is pretty much a waste if its just "Quick Cast." We should have something like occasionally gives free stratagems.
- Bottom Line: First off "Quick Cast" isn't a big boost for us. The funny thing is that "Quick cast" would only be really useful towards Nukes and maybe casting a reraise/raise/stone/blink/aqua spell. BLM has Elemental Celerity II and armor that reduces the casting time to a very short time for nukes which really just kicks a nuking SCH with "Quick cast" in the balls.. There's also an issue when using Immanence on a closing nuke and "Quick Cast" procs it doesn't SC from what I see.
3.) the Savant's Gown +1/+2 enhanced Addendum: White/Black WTF does it do??? If its less enmity for spells under current art that would just be a waste unless the Healing/Nuking spells are enhanced w/ enmity for example Nuke damage increase w/ +enmity, healing magic increase potency w/ -enmity. And using add. white gives -enmity and add. black gives +enmity
4.) SCH is known for the strategic mage that can AoE spells. We should be the only job that can AoE all spells while others are limited to certain spells. Look at BLM they have -ja spells now so it still keeps BLM higher. SMN has hastega with Garuda so there should be another source that can give hastega also. Another thing I don't understand why SCH can't AoE helices spells..Its a SCH unique spell why wouldn't it be capable w/ our job abilities /facepalm.
5.) Klimaform the recast time is long as hell and it lasts for 1 min..either increase the duration or reduce the recast time.
6.) Make some gear or a weapon that "Enhances the potency of Adloquium Schema" that could also stack with other gear with the same enhances.
7.) Modus Veritas missing is just so damn lame it should be 100% but if stacked the percentage goes down further.
8.) Enlightenment should not only reduce the MP cost of both spells with your next magic spell (as if your light arts or dark arts),
but also allow you to use the both dark/light stratagems for next spell.
**(Optional)** our 2 hour should change to "Crimson Grimoire" once you defeat Gunther in Survival of the Wisest. This grimoire is the ultimate grimoire which would have all our stratagems completely free and spells at our usage w/o the addendum.
I mean seriously SCH is like the most unused job so far. SE needs to focus a bit more on trying to make it useful.
