With all these astrologian complain threads

[fanservice]

Most of the time that I've run low on MP on AST is due to others making mistakes, which are harder to correct on AST compared to SCH or WHM.

So much this. ASTs just can't power through a mechanic hiccup anywhere near as easily. It's so easy to see even in 4-mans.

What I can see is SCH/diurnal AST in raids though.
