Nocturnal Sect Benefic - 380 Potency + 5% = 380 *1.05 = 399 Potency / GCD

Cure II - 650 Potency / GCD
Adlo - 600 Potency / GCD when correcting for shields (non crit)
Diurnal Sect Benefic II - 620 Potency @ 2.38 cast = 620 * (2.5/2.38) = 651 Potency / GCD
Nocturnal Sect Benefic - 620 Potency + 5% = 380 *1.05 = 651 Potency / GCD

Medica - 300 Potency / GCD
Succor - 300 Potency / GCD when correcting for shields
Diurnal Sect Helios - 290 Potency @ 2.38 cast = 290 * (2.5/2.38) = 304 Potency / GCD
Nocturnal Sect Benefic - 290 Potency + 5% = 380 *1.05 = 304 Potency / GCD

I dunno about you, but the baseline healing output looks quite similar to me. As I mentioned, AST lacks the means to easily boost those numbers in their favour, but it doesn't mean their actual bread and butter heals are weaker.
