Scholar is probably one of the most comfortable classes I have played in an MMO. Unlocking Cleric Stance from Conjurer was such an incredible game changer, as it swaps Int and Mind stats. I can use that to alternate my stats when I feel like kicking back and running SMN in dungeons, but honestly I vastly prefer DPSing as a scholar. (DoTs out the ass) It's a shame I don't get to choose. I can't wait to see how effective I am in both modes when I have my endgame gear. The goal is to get the highest Mind possible with a secondary focus on spell speed. It seems Summoner gear doesn't have nearly as much speed bonus, so I'm going to thoroughly enjoy popping CS and Broiling my enemies at lightning speed.
Glamour goal is probably the Labyrinth of the Ancients armor IF I can dye the red parts blue. Solmund would never be caught dead in red. *The Wiz reference*.
I'm glad to hear you're having fun as a scholar/SMN. I'm rolling a healer next and didn't really consumer scholar as an option. But if you're telling me it's cushy and fun, that may just be the right way to go.

I want to try it. I just need to find a good FC when I hit Balmung on the 20th.

Not sure that's possible in FFXIV though. It was in Rift.
I'm already playing catchup lol. I feel like most of the server is way ahead of me!
Quote:Just to add, i170/80/90 gear is multi-class, while i200 is for a single class.
So for alt classes i190 may be the best aim before 3.1
I'm thinking I'll get 190 max before 3.1 as well. The thing is I don't want to do another DPS so I'm not sure I'll be making much use of cross-class armour.
