Your thoughts on Astrolgian so far?

I can tell you now, even as SCH, some of the later dungeons past The Vault are tough to heal through due to fails. It's possible, but only because I have "oops" buttons like Indomitability, Deployment Tactics, and Whispering Dawn.

AST is going to have a very hard time healing the boss of Aetherochemical and beyond. It's very unforgiving if your group derps, even as WHM/SCH. Nevermind having time to draw and place Card buffs; your concentration is going to be solely on keeping people alive. Even as SCH, I'm finding it difficult to DPS on some of these fights.

There are many encounters where seeing people below 20% is a reoccurring trend. Gear will make this easier, but until you and the group you're in is overgeared, I see healing on AST to be a constant struggle unless your group plays flawlessly
