Your thoughts on Astrolgian so far?

@Krixus : again you totally miss the point : we are not saying you can't heal stupid useless dungeon. You can. We are saying that AST being BELOW the other two healers will make him unwanted. If a + b are better than C. You'll take A and B and left out C. C is AST in this situation.

@Vlady : lol @ saying ast buffs are equivalent to bards. Just no. Bards is a guaranteed damage boost, guaranteed tp regen, guaranteed mana regen when you want it. You can use it whenever it sees the best use. You can't with ast and it's not as strong.

And buffing AST potency will not make them outshine WHM since we have shitty cds.

Not missing the point, I clearly see what you are saying. I just think you guys are underestimating the buffs. 45 second 10% dmg buff on your top dps makes a nice difference, and its really not that uncommon. Also if you pull a card you dont want you can cancel it in the buff icons and save 15 seconds, so draw is on 30 second cycles instead of 45 (with waiting an unwanted card out). I parse everything ive done so far and the dps im buffing always soars over the other.

Why take a whm + sch when you can do Ast + Sch and get double buffs? Open you eyes people! Good players in progression content will be able to heal perfectly fine, the potency is just shy of a whm. I wonder how many here even play the job, or just repeat what they have heard.
