Very informative guide. Just 1 minor correction: when talking about excog, you say that it only heals when target's hp falls below 50%. But it also heals upon expiring after 45 seconds as shown in the tooltip on screen.

Just started back up for the first time since 2021. I loved Scholar before, but jumping back in to it at level 70 was a real struggle. Thanks for being so informative!

thank you for making this guide, i mainly play tanks in high end raid but I wanted to branch out and learn new jobs for 7.0 this was really helpful 🙏🙏

thank you for your explanations have helped me mega to heal better =)

It took a while but it’s finally here! Now only AST is left and then I have a guide for every job

Well structured and informative. My least favorite healer to play from gamefeel, but appreciated nonetheless.

Thank you very much! I have struggled with scholar over the years for various reasons until I finally managed to be half-decent, but especially when it comes to the new skills in EW I wasn't sure when exactly they are supposed to be used. I'm not doing any savage or extreme content, so massive min-maxing doesn't matter for me, but I still like to be a good healer in other content when crap hits the fan. :) A question or more of reassurance about Deployment Tactics: Did I get this right that the ideal way to make a most of it would be Protraction -> Adlo on someone who doesn't already have a shield and then Deployment Tactics to spread it? Also, my best guess for this would be putting it on the tank, but I heard some scholars say they prefer to cast Adlo on themselves and then spread it whenever it's needed before the timer runs out. At the same time though a healer usually isn't supposed to need a shield in the first place if the tank does their job, so.. what is your take about it? In e.g. a normal dungeon, trial or raid, who should get it? (I'm sorry should my questions asks something you already explained in the video, English is not my first language, so I might have missed one or two remarks due to language issues.)

The main reason why some scholars prefer doing a spreadlo starting from themselves is due to the thing I mentioned about taking damage. If the person who you initially shielded takes damage before you deploy then the spread shield would be less big as well since it copies the current state of the shield (strength and duration included)

How do you deal with the slow cast time? As Sage, it's pretty comfortable to shield the team when I see the boss about to cast raid-wides, but with SCH, I barely make it in time to shield before the attacks, and sometimes I'm too late.

Typically you learn an encounter and plan your usage ahead of time, this allows you to cast your abilities well before the cast bar even shows. For progression or blind content some other thumb rules apply. Perhaps this video could help you get more comfortable with scholar, and healing in general, kzread.info/dash/bejne/ppiJvJVsY6m0Z7g.htmlsi=oQnLSlxaJpwVVLa5

i started as scholar back in ARR. it changed a lot and with only astro and white mage as alternate comparisons, it always felt to slow and too low in heal potency. this really only started after storm blood and just felt like it kept getting worse. still dont really like the pet control changes. glad they seem to have given them a little more potency now with some of the new skills and potency changes. still kind of wonder if its even necessary to have a shield healer class when you were able to stack regens back in the day. even two white mages could stack their regens and it was definitely more reliable than the pet heals.

A scholar and sage has to use their shields ahead of the damage. It effectively is damage mitigation. It very much is necessary to have, especially in the early weeks of savage or ultimates. It’s so much the case that the theoretically best healer duo is sage and scholar, no regen healers. Although this is difficult to play.

@@Juliacare they would do us a huge favor is they added an overlapping yellow bar or something to the health bar when a shield is active to show how much the shield is covering or how much is left of it. that would at least give us an idea of both our timing and also help look past the pure health bar so we can actually see the effective mitigation.

I love Scholar. But I hate how none of their oGCDs are shields. Optimal healing is not using your GCDs. But Scholar, a shield healer, has no oGCD sheilds, but WHM does... I'm playing Scholar cause I want to sheild heal andI like their looks. But no oGCD sheilds sucks.

Scholar job guide: use everything u have for damage and be a nuscense for ur cohealer

may I suggest that you skip the "basics" like main role and party composition, since this is a lvl 90 patch 6.4 guide. if you have made it this far into the game, I'm pretty sure you know what the green roles are and that there are 4 or 8 ppl in a party. I'm guessing I'm not alone in clicking on this video to find out what has changed with SCH in 6.4 after I took a break. *shrug*

You are talking nonsense with teh DPS check stuff. There is no DPS check for like 99% of the players, only the 1% that does elite end game raids does get into. It is not going to break pickup groups or raids if the healer is bad at doing dps, it is going to break the group if the healer is bad at healing.

Here's the thing: Healing is stupidly easy if the group doesn't stand in AoEs. So unless the group is so bad that they need the healer to be healing 24/7, the healer should be helping to DPS.

@@rotafortunae I half agree with you. 99% of the time I dungeon it's with duty finder, and even in Endwalker dungeons, people get hit by the dumbest stuff, tanks not using cooldowns correctly, or at all. I very rarely find myself being able to focus on DPS and not healing. For crying out loud, I barely see people interrupt with Interject or Head Shot appropriately. If you're playing with a premade team, then yeah, you probably won't have anything to worry about, but if you're Duty Finder near 100% of the time like the rest of us, you'll barely be able to DPS as a healer. For example, Sacred Soil is a great ability, too bad my tank refuses to stand it as the mobs are attacking him (this happens a lot). Raids are a little different though, but even then, I find myself having to resurrect the healers from the other raids very often. When you're teaming up with randoms, you just don't get a chance to focus on DPS because the majority of players make stupid mistakes, at least from my experience.

I'm gonna have to agree with you...sure healers make up 15% of the raid's dps but its really not a big deal if your dps is interrupted or missed a weave/clip as a healer. For as long as you are DPS'ing and you're healing when its needed its all the raid needs.
