Category:Stratagem

When a scholar gains access to Light Arts and Dark Arts at level 10, he or she will also acquire new abilities called "Stratagems."
The abilities available within Stratagems will correspond to the type of Arts the scholar currently has activated. No abilities will be displayed if neither Light Arts nor Dark Arts has been selected.

Stratagems do not have a recast time. However, the use of these abilities is restricted by the number of "charges" available, with each ability consuming one charge per use.

• When using the "/recast" text command, it is necessary to nominate a specific Stratagem to which the scholar currently has access, such as "/recast Celerity". This command will display the amount of time remaining until a new charge will be generated, as well as the current number of charges available.

The number of charges available depends on the level of the Scholar and the accumulation timer varies with the number of available stratagems such that it would take 4 minutes to recover the total available stratagems if all were depleted at once.

Level	Number of Charges	Time to Regain One Charge
10-29	1	4 minutes
30-49	2	2 minutes
50-69	3	1 minute and 20 seconds
70-89	4	1 minute
90+	5	48 seconds
99 550 Gift	5	33 seconds

Maximum charges available depend on scholar (main or sub job) level per chart above. For example, a SCH99 has a maximum of 5 charges while a WHM99/SCH49 has a maximum of 2 charges.

• Master levels DO increase maximum stratagem charges and stratagem recharge time when /SCH.
