I have been playing the class since it's release and loving it. I'm always looking around to see if other people are making content on it or playing it to see if I can learn something new and this run down on the class was really well put together, the community would benefit from more of these for sure. Have a like and a sub, my dude. Pretty good stuff! Looking forward to more.
Hey I appreciate that. I tried to find good content on her but there wasnt much and everyone was just putting the class down. Somebodies gotta pick up the torch. 🫡
Thanks for this video and your newer guide. I am currently looking for a tag class and potential nw class to switch from time to time. Currently I am a bit between Succ Drakania and Scholar as both offer something different from my Awa Sage and when trying them in RBF on Trial Chars both classes performed decent overall (considering the gear gap). Currently I do exclusively T1 nodewars, but I am considering going to T3 (or T2 if those NW changes come to live before). Would you say there is a huge difference between the performance of Succ Drakania and Scholar in current T3 settings or is it still pretty much the same?
I've played both classes for extended periods. Awk drak is absolutely busted rn. In T3s or T4s id take her over succ Drak or Scholar. But in lower tiers Scholar is doing so much more. You'll find it hard to stay for prolonged periods with scholar in higher tiers like in lower tiers. I haven't been in higher tiers war in a few months. I wanna go give it another go now that I'm not rusty.
I mained both. If your earlier in the game 600-670 main guard. She is one of the best grinders in the game, you could always tag scholar. Scholar becomes better later on in PvE. If you dont grind and just pvp its scholar for sure. You can do more.
NOOOO...jk. If you like the asthetic 100% go for it she is fun to play. Well, in terms of ease of use I'd say she isn't complicated, but she is limited. Your gonna find yourself having troubles CC'n targets unless you catch them off guard on a flank unlike Mystics ability to spam CC's. Scholar doesn't have alot of CC's to her kit you rely heavily on spacebar and grab. Her neutral is amazing and people tend to not want to fight her, so you end up chasing alot. Either that or people are dumb and see you as food and then you really shine because they just can't touch you. Her sustain is where the class is shining right now. Use that to make the class shine a lot of hammerspin. Her PvE is decent, you can go to my PvE/PvP guide from a few months ago. That PvE combo is about the same only thing different now is I took out downRMB and use drop kick into infinite power and I throw hammer spin at the end. I might drop a new PvE guide but I am waiting on class changes to see what they do to her. We still don't have magnus or a 6th core. 🤷♂
You can't build her full glass cannon, personally I run some DR cuz its tbe best I got. It really depends on how much gear you have honestly. The issue with full glass cannon her damage isn't that great of a burst you have to stay in for a few skills cuz of her high damage reduction rates. So you need to help her sustain and build in some "tankyness." I can't build 1300+ evasion but I feel like the class would be good with high evasion because she has high accuracy rate passives and AP passives. But the point is to decrease incoming damage as much as you can so you can be more of a sorc and diwindle down targets over time.
I really like the class I am strictly pve player I main sage awakening so she is the closes to him in aesthetics. But i also wonder will she achieve close number tosage in. Pve for example kratuga and gyfin upper ?
I played awk sage for years. For PvE no, I don't think she will ever reach Awk or Succ Sage. Her AoEs cant keep up with her Succ Sage and Awk has a pull to round guys up burst down quickly. They also have reset so its another free E buff. Scholar would need AoE size buffs to compete.
I agree, and its not like major buffs cuz she would get OP pretty quick. That's why its disappointing they haven't tweaked her yet...or the abysal skill either..dunno what's up with that. Its been long enough I think.
I found it absolutely hilarious you sounds completely different from your Should You Play Scholar video! Its like a day and night difference! When from sounding like that thug dude Tyrone to now hearing that nerd Sheldon
LMAO WHAT!! Hell naaaaw 😭😭😭 I had to do alot of mic and set up switching. TBH i wasnt happy with the audio quality I got this time around. I actually had a cold for most of this read, so i sound even more groggy. Hopefully nexy one is somewere in between, I cant be out here sounding like SHELDON 😭
as a played scholar for a month till now i still see that class need some more love to function well 1- she easliy can get outplayed by small movements by enemy 2- she need some easier cc's to catch and re cc cuz her skills either misses or have long animations so ome the only real compo for her is the grab combo and that is take us to the next problems 3- her grab can make you quit the class it just a small hit box projectile the easily can miss or make u do teleport beside the char which is awfullll so i think to make the char function we need 1- any kinda of catching fast animation cc that have high accuracy and wont miss most of time (reliable) 2- grab fix that make it more consistent cuz current grab is a joke it only useable at a standingstill targets or as a re cc 3- some aoe buffs for only pve but her aoe sizes is not that bad atm i mean this my take at the class i will like to share ur opinion at this points as well and thx for the video
1. Yea she can get outplayed alot of her animations are long and in range of back attacks from enemies so usually her forwards are very dangerous. I tend to not use them. But her movment is amazing and staying protected is a breeze. 2. Depends, I get your point. Her CCs for whatever reasons don't work in like AoS. Theres some matches where I only get CCs from getting 5 or 6 grabs and literally none of her spacebar CCs are knockning enemies. In largescale tho, that spacebar slam is juicy. Followed up with hammerspin and down E its chunky dps. 3. Naw I love her grab, its super fast. I wish the grab wasnt abled to be resisted twice though. I am pretty sure people get grabbed then resist the *float* (i think its a float) . Also getting CC'd mid grab warp feels awful. I 100% believe her AoS DPS numbers are low cuz her AoEs are soo small. And having a soid ranged CC like switching homerun or hammer throw to a knockdown or float would be helpful. She cant poke safetly for CCs right now.
@@Seroskill36 Hmm i cant agree with that. Class is good at pve and good at pvp her CC potential isnt the best and damage is under tuned cuz of high damage reduction. Not the easiest class to be successful in pvp. I have been waiting for a class buff for 4 months now. Ima need to reupdate her cuz she is different after the DR buffs.
@@Rocket-Gaming I watched a couple of PvP Scholar videos and I can say this class basically just exists zooms around and hopes to land a lucky CC in between. No hate here just my thoughts it looks like it exists to exist
Great video man. You should do more content like that, and for other classes! God job!
Really well put together video. keep it up

I was stubborn lol. I played her for the first time this week. Very impressive, can't wait to see what she can do in upper areas.

Good video Rocket, she is great in lower tier nodewars for sure.
I am not sure if i should main gardia or scholar tbh. I am new to the game and i struggle choosing between those 2. Can you help ?

Really making me roll over to hammer lady. I dont worry about efficiency. Coming from mystic, how does she compare in ease of use/learning the class?
NOOOO...jk. If you like the asthetic 100% go for it she is fun to play.

Stick with mystic scholar isnt good especially PvP wise she is basically a **it version on sage.
hi planning to play scholar. is it gonna be a glass cannon build? DR? or eva? whats your thoughts. thanks
You can't build her full glass cannon, personally I run some DR cuz its tbe best I got. It really depends on how much gear you have honestly. The issue with full glass cannon her damage isn't that great of a burst you have to stay in for a few skills cuz of her high damage reduction rates.

please show the scholar comboo
I am working on an updated pvp guide and node war guide video rn. Will be live this week.
I really like the class
I am strictly pve player
I main sage awakening so she is the closes to him in aesthetics.
But i also wonder will she achieve close number tosage in. Pve for example kratuga and gyfin upper ?
I played awk sage for years.
For PvE no, I don't think she will ever reach Awk or Succ Sage. Her AoEs cant keep up with her Succ Sage and Awk has a pull to round guys up burst down quickly. They also have reset so its another free E buff. Scholar would need AoE size buffs to compete.
I love scholar, she def needs some love with some little buffs.
I agree, and its not like major buffs cuz she would get OP pretty quick. That's why its disappointing they haven't tweaked her yet...or the abysal skill either..dunno what's up with that. Its been long enough I think.

as a played scholar for a month till now i still see that class need some more love to function well
1- she easliy can get outplayed by small movements by enemy
2- she need some easier cc's to catch and re cc cuz her skills either misses or have long animations so ome the only real compo for her is the grab combo and that is take us to the next problems
3- her grab can make you quit the class it just a small hit box projectile the easily can miss or make u do teleport beside the char which is awfullll
so i think to make the char function we need 1- any kinda of catching fast animation cc that have high accuracy and wont miss most of time (reliable)
2- grab fix that make it more consistent cuz current grab is a joke it only useable at a standingstill targets or as a re cc
3- some aoe buffs for only pve but her aoe sizes is not that bad atm
i mean this my take at the class i will like to share ur opinion at this points as well
and thx for the video

your voice at intro remind me of michael fisher from mr.mobile
This class is the only class that just exists to exist. It dose nothing and just exists somewhere 😂

@@Rocket-Gaming well I have been waiting for Kuno to get a proper PvE update for approximately 7 years. Some things are just unlikely
