Sorry for long time response, It appears to have been smilies or my unintentional use of one.
Back to original question, from the description it sounds like they are giving the scholar skills in every base magics. Anyone notice if that included Summoning? It be nice if this count past the summoning skill "limit".
Is there any test server information about this class somewhere that I just havent seen?
Scholar will have access to a libraries of White Magic and Black Magic, including a few spells unique to the job.
What makes it special is the ability to call upon one of two encyclopedias, or, "Grimoires," each dedicated to previously mentioned schools of magic, granting the Scholar access to spectacular abilities and bonuses for one school, but at the cost of hindering the other.
It has the potential to draw me away from Red Mage. (Probably even moreso for Taskmage: not only is he a Scholar already, but he's a former Ikaruga, so I'm pretty sure he's got this Black/White switching thing all figured out.)
That is all we know about the job thus far. As for Summons, I honestly wouldn't hold your breath. Sorry if it reduces your expectations for the job (I personally love the concept).
