Should really have a MND based enfeebling build for slow and paralyze.

For SCH, my inventory wouldn't really suffice for that, on RDM I have a great MND Build for enfeebling Magic, my dilemma is whether or not the AF+1 body beats out the Savant's Gown +2 in sheer macc while also providing a large amount of INT and MND mods (11 Macc + the Macc of 12 INT/MND on their respective spells). For the most part that Build is built around Sleep, Bind, Gravity and Break in mind. It's really the same reason I don't a stoneskin build either, just lack of inventory space, I have other sets that I just keep tucked away in my sachel like Elemental builds, etc, which have no value as it stands right now, since you have to be pretty much naked to get resisted by anything at 90.

Also, off topic, Old goal accomplished. ^^



Hopefully it becomes Trialable in future updates.

All the more reason for you to drop some of the crap that's in your current enfeebling build for a real slow and paralyze build.

If there is ever a situation where I am going to be relied on for slow and para, (mainly if I'm the only healer) then I wouldn't be SCH. I'd be RDM for Haste and Slow/Para II. That being said, With things like Grav, Break, and Sleep, that "crap" is for the most part the best for them, in Bind's case, I have enough INT to keep a solid bind (can usually hold 2-3 nukes) with minikin monstrosity. If I didn't have RDM leveled, I wouldn't mind investing into a MND build, but again, if that's going to be my job in the current situation, my RDM will suffice much more. Now, if they added a stratagem with an effect similar to saboteur that would enhance the potency of our enfeebling magic, that would be a different story, but the chances of that are as low as my hopes of the next merit catagories featuring Ebullience II, Parsimony II, etc.

Thing is, there is probably going to be a time where you'll want it, and it won't even be available to you. You could even just throw together the MND gear you have on hand already- it would be an upgrade over what you're using atm. Not having it available is just diminishing how effective you are at your job in any given situation. What if the RDM you have there dies? What if you want to split groups? There are a number of scenarios where it might be needed, and to ignore them is just being ignorant. As well, there is no reason to bring SCH as a dedicated healer to anything anyways, with how powerful WHM is. That's not really helping my point go one way or the other, but it's something to think about.

You shouldn't count sch out as a healer so soon. Sure it doesn't even stand close to whm now, but it is far better than rdm. With the addition of twilight cape, and the af3+2 hat, approaching 1k cure IVs is highly possible. My highest so far i think was 850-900, i don't remember exact number. This was only with 21% cure potency.

I use:
Auraorastorm

-apollo's staff (10%)
-savants bonnet +2 (Makes rapture into a 30% bonus)
-flygja torque (2%)
-augur hands (4%)
-shantoto pants (5%)
-twilight cape (5%)
-korin obi (10% )

-To my knowledge, the savants effects and the weather effects do not count towards to cure potency cap, so there is still a big improvement to be made here. Next is the issue of enmity. I believe that our savant's body +2 can solve that issue, although, i have no clue what it does to enmity....even though i have it -.-....

Regarding slow and paralyze, if the rdm dies without RR up then there is a problem! But I agree with you. Whenever i'm on whm i constantly find myself slow and paraing mobs because of lack of rdms. However, is a mind build really neccessary in abyssea with cruor buffs and atmas. I have one for my rdm, but like pofo I do not have one for my sch. Regardless when i slow and para on sch, i still have close to +100 mind without even changing any of my gear around to specifically focus on mind.

You have WHM and you cure in Apollo's Staff? :\ Not bashing, but getting up to the 15% cure potency teiwaz is really easy.

It would have been smarter to put Enfeebling on the hat then. +7 Elemental Skill is vital for SCH to reach 300/320skill for nukes, +6INT would be a greater help to reaching 150/130INT. MND and Elemental skill is just retarded.

Anyway, pic:

Couple weeks late on SS, but my PC fried and I wasn't able to get a new one til yestarday~ anyways Yama's +2! Now I play the waiting game... til august.

Oh, and to those who are about to ask, because I've been asked this 100+ times... The Darkness Affinity Damage +5 Does apply to both drain and aspir (In Dynamis I puled out several 455 Aspir II's with Anrin Obi and Twilight Cape /orgasm)
