Meh, got stuck on the bottom of the page of course, reposting it:

Small update on Tabula Rasa, Embrava, and Kaustra today:

09-06-2011 01:46 PM
[source]
Camate
Community Rep

Based on all of the feedback we have received, we will be making the below changes to SCH:

  • Tabula Rasa
    Effect duration will be changed from 90 seconds to 180 seconds.
     

  • Embrava
    MP cost will be changed from 30% of your max MP to 20%.
    Changed to make it possible to be used on players outside of your party.
     

  • Kaustra
    MP cost will be changed from 30% of your max MP to 20%.
    Increased damage slightly.


As you all have mentioned, since this is an ability/spell that can only be used once every two hours, we revamped it as much as possible.

The idea of the adjustments this time, including the reason for adding Embrava and Kaustra, is to increase the usage of Tabula Rasa. In the future we will be looking at adjustments other than effect duration, but consider this the first phase.


There are still a lot of things we would like to adjust, so we are placing SCH adjustments at a pretty high priority for the future as well.

Um...yeah...Kaustra's damage increase was a bit more than slight. Went to test it out, here are the results.

VWNM Ushumgal, Darksday:

Full power! (Mangy-tailed Marvin, Darksday, accidentally popped Ascetic's Gambir instead of Tonic)

Fistule:

Notice what buff is up when Kaustra wears on Ushumgal and Fistule? Yep, Tabula Rasa. That means you can fire two full-powered Kaustras in one 2hr!

Aaand just for good measure:

Pretty much. Noctohelix did about 350 though, probably about 5% or so.

Unless we materialize a massive array of procing spells, our best use will probably be the '15-minutes-late-to-event-job-where-everything-is-already-covered-so-we-really-don't-know-what-to-put-you-on'
and even then non-schs are probably too back asswards in the head to realize our potential, so everything will come full swing and result in

I never said for tanking chief
certainly not worthy of even any sort of .jpg, maybe a .png but that's pushing it
war is torn to shreds, however, being able to use an array of weapons it obviously has a great capacity for procing, and during the 20 second procs I'd imagine you'd be fine to meditate up and ukko something in the face for extra %

Can't fulltime a 2hr, but it will make 3 minutes of every 2 hours pretty cool.

i dont think they will its not like we can really abuse the spells since it requires our 2hr and when will you ever see more than one sch (if even that) any place that people are raiding etc. its more likely to see Bully nerfed before our 2hr spells just saying.
