Revert healing and incoming damage to Heavensward era. Boom, I'd be happy again. If people want to DPS, they'll need accuracy and proper use of clerics. Otherwise you're going to be doing more...

AST definitely wins out here vs the other healers. They have a consistent theme from 1 to 80, while WHM makes a 180 to light based effects at 70, and SCH feels a bit all over the place from 50 onward...

I know. Really, I feel like the game could do with a proper encounter design revamp that brings healers toolkits into play more. I really miss Heavensward healing. 2.0 Healing as well. Where we were...

I'm about to give up. I honestly hate being green DPS, I wish there was more to heal and less predictable healing to be done. I feel like I do so much DPSing in most content now that I should just...

Realistically, removing the seal system woulds fix it. xD Old AST did not have this problem because there was nothing to match. You draw, either RR/spread, or MR and go about your day. Now you need...

A big issue here is they advertise housing to new players on the sign up page, whereupon they get into the game and find out that it's not so simple to acquire your 'slice' of Eorzea. I have a...

Can't say I agree with this honestly. I have no problem with high healing phases on my AST. Proper Earthly Star usage, Horoscope usage, and Neutral Sect see to that. I've never had an issue keeping...

What about Art of War?

Can you elaborate here? As someone who omniheals, I am a bit confused on this one.

We don't know how much of a boost SAM will get yet.

All we can hope for is 5.1. More drastic changes will probably happen then. It's sad we got nothing from 5.08 but as Hyo said, they never explicitly said we we're getting anything either.

Yeah, I feel pretty bad for Physical Ranged dps classes right now. I was leveling a BRD too. xD

I can't disagree enough. Even played optimally, we are behind the other healers by a fair margin. Potency buffs are absolutely needed, either on cards or on our DPS skills. Both may be too much,...

A good GNB will use their CD's properly and that will make them easy to heal from my experience. Not WAR/DRK easy, but easy enough. If I am being honest though, about 50% of my rough runs through...

Been an AST since 3.3 HW. I wouldn't say love, but the harder I work, the more enjoyment I get out of the new kit. I just wish for it to be stronger so that I can compete with the other healers in...

At this point, I just want the class to be stronger, have a secondary mana skill, and some of it's frantic gameplay fixed. I've more or less accepted the new card system, the values just need to be a...

Buff Malefic IV to 250 or 260 potency.
Buff Combust III to 50 potency.
Buff Divination %'s to 5/7/10.
Draw now restores 5% of total MP (500) when drawing a card.
Buff Collective Unconscious to...

Might be cool, even viable but a few things need to happen first I think. Something meaningful needs to change about Nocturnal Sect, and we need a second way to recover MP. The drain on mana from...

New system screwing controller people aside (I know it sucks), I think old AST got around this because it wasn't nearly as hectic, but more importantly it was a far stronger job overall. pDPS was...

TBK can be cast on other tanks, and doesn't cost resources if you use it wisely. GNB is a squishy tank compared to DRK in my opinion but side by side, DRK can make up for that by casting TBK on the...

Why y'all comparing DRK designs from other games in the series that aren't even MMO's, or FFXI which is so old at this point that the comparison is pretty nutty to begin with? I'm happy DRK didn't...

Skeptical, with SE's track record. They could do it, but it may end up being like how Tanks are right now, and I'm not too sure that would be worth it.

I remember him doing one of those state of the realm things where he continued that mindset even though the other two people he was discussing things with tried to explain to him that the class was...

Fair enough. I agree though, the dual sect nature is kneecaping the class right now. I kinda wish they did a Horoscope esque system, where you had strong delayed heals and could manipulate them from...

Healers? What're those? Anyways thank you for posting these!
