Peturbed-Bo: The scholar's stats are the first sin

callanharvey6264: Scholars dodge not going as far is actually a good thing when playing aggressively. I also like how fast it is in total compared to the normal roll, it feels more like a bloodborne dodge.

Asteriarimia: Fun Fact: The Scholar's unique moveset does not apply to the Frozen Needle, even if you are playing as Scholar its moveset remains the same, that is true for every single attack of the weapon.

thatlittlemonstrosity: kinda wish every merchant had their own inventory. So in one expedition you can find both fire pots merchant or magic pots

Revision-Harrowed: Random fun fact about Scholar; You can block Mogh's nihil pulse with his self bubble! It's not that useful, but it might save you one flask.

47dynasty28: Legendary video pull as soon as i leave the shower

TheMilkManSL: When in trios, he’s an incredibly fun and versatile character. I’m glad I watched your guides to get the best out of him, top two most fun characters for me.

michalnowacki1489: I really need a mod where every time you start analyzing, audio of Youwy glazing piercing damage plays, it could be a relic effect that decreases the enemies pierce dmg negation or something

thaearthquake: Perfect video for my wake and bake

palmmoot: One of the most cracked runs I've had with Scholar I found WCB and a poison bleed dagger with wraiths on walking. Analyse procs the wraiths on walking, and so does ringing the bell. Melted everything

ososq8y5353: Scholar will be even more powerful once they fix him. Because im pretty sure in the trailers & pre-release he can buff his allies stamina & give them parry bubble aswell. He's definitely bugged rn

reiddutchess9955: I really like Scholar, people were trashing the character like crazy before the DLC released, but I think he is an awesome character.

Salacavalini: Random niche interaction - if a threaded ally heals, e.g. by drinking a flask, it damages threaded enemies. Extremely niche, but killing a bunch of weaker soldier enemies by just chugging twice in front of them looks funny.

protonjones54: You can tell the skill level of a player based on their opinion of scholar's parry

loppandummerdar7264: love your vids :)

spaghettidude2984: I actually prefer his dodge over the basic roll dodge

ilovecherries101: Pretty much 100% agree.

I've seen a couple videos of people really overselling Scholar and even started wondering if that I might be missing something about him.

He certainly is novel and quite fun yet feels like there isn't a case where he is an optimal choice. Even in the Balancers expedition which he was tailor made for.

wnkr413: I know this isnt that good but i saw a guy bring the start with 6 starlight shards relic at the start of the game and pretty much got that catergory to max instantly

teofilogarciatrujillo6330: Will you do a video going over the relics added to the everdark shop?

brettonalwood4173: I had a fun run where i got the dragon communion seal and tried using incantations.

BeckAshton: Biggest thing is that his ult feels like it needs more I-frames idk how many times I’ve died while ulting

gizkma2303: Really wish his starting weapon had similar arcane scaling to the ripple weapons

sirBeatslayer: They couldn't give this guy a decent INT scaling? He's the SCHOLAR after all!

nerdthatcantfit1079: I actually can’t believe how good the blood blade build is on this guy. The other day I was in trios, level 5, separated from my teammates bc they were taking longer at the merchant, and I saw the dragon guardian the evergael we wanted to clear, so I went to see how the damage would be (like if we’d have a chance) and by the time my teammates reached me in like 20 secs or smth, I got the dragon ti half health with blood blade spams to the head. Rlly good build. Only complaint is that it’s a one trick pony, gets boring kinda fast imo
