I got back at him at a later time, ofc he doesnt have a video of that tho <3

Granted I perform better when I'm not trying to mock people with /ignore /walkaway

There's a video floating around of me being cocky as AST too hahaha. LOVE YOU MIASMA<3

Given the recent developments of sprint not consuming TP, I'm (even moreso) on board with WHM and SCH getting more love than AST getting any sort of nerf. Those two are gonna be miserable to play...

ooh an indirect buff to melee and tanks if this is the case. Also makes ast the only real healer I guess now for new mode. I wouldn't hold my breath on them buffing whm and sch. Probably easier for them to just nerf ast stance. Doing something like giving whm insta cures like ast would make the problems people complain about the current ast mild in comparison.

Would giving WHM an instant heal on Regen really be that OP, though? Regen is a huge mana hog and Diurnal isn't that far from being properly balanced.

Regen doesn't nearly provide what Diurnal/Aspected Benefic does when the name of the game is burst. Even if it did, still leaves the question of SCH.

The skilled career whm ' s would put the ast to shame if you gave them an insta heal on gcd, coupled with 60 sec tetra, benediction, a sleep, 2 binds, a heavy, a knockback, a stun and sacred soil (won't even bother listing attunement among those abilities). Whm is my preferred healing class in pvp and though I'm far from a pro at the job even I think it would be hilariously over powered if u let them insta heal on gcd.

I think Scholar will be fine with how things are (though, obviously, it loses the sustain game to Noct). Scholar has the best defensive tricks and a surprising amount of stabilization, two areas where Noct really lacks.

It's still very finite before it has to resort to hardcasting. And God forbid Aetherflow is dispelled.

SMN needs it more than AST does.

Sadly it seems that SE take in consideration for pvp skills adjustment only the last PvP content released, so probably the AST will be by far more painful than a SMN in a Wolve's Den 2 content,
in seal rock they are easy to use compared to other classes expecially in the 72 man FL, but not so overpowered like astros are not actually in Seal rock in my opinion,
but if nothing changes they will be a pain in The Feast.

AST so OP

Aspected Benefic: The effect of Nocturnal Field will be halved in PvP areas.

lmao. And the whiners win again.

Its easy enough to kill astro's in pvp. People just expect to facestomp any class 1v1 with LB apparantly.

Lol had a 24 earlier took 3 melee lbs in about 10 secs still didn't die, silly randoms.

The complaints got through it seems. Sad to say another class Nerf for pvp

Could they seriously not wait for the actual Feast seasons to go with such a big nerf? A change was needed but that's just stupid. Miasma/Supervirus, Storm's path or Dancing edge and you're gone.

So it's time to use Diurnal in PVP....already use it in PVE, can they remove Nocturnal Sect already, it has been badly thought out and such silly decisions as this only enforces it, it has no synergy with AST extension CD's at all......there better be more changes than just this one in the full notes.

WTF is this supposed to show? Is showing an AST getting killed by 5+ or however many people supposed to mean anything?
