    CAN do they content? Sure. Is it EASY and/or EFFICIENT to bring them over the current WHM/SCH meta? Hell no. Nice vid, though; its always enjoyable to watch a capable AST at work, even if the job itself needs some tweaks. Now that my static is relatively geared (I was still in quest whites until late yesterday, lol), we're eager to sink our teeth into the fight before Alex comes out and all our attention is diverted to that.
    Not sure you know what efficient means. Ast would be more so because ast/sch can buff the pt and whm cannot. So if you have a capable ast, yes it is more efficient.

    Depends on if the SCH has to cut down on their own DPS/swap to Eos instead of using Selene to cover AST's deficiency in raids. If either of those things have to occur, then buh-bye to that "AST buff efficiency" that you so love to go on about. (Assuming average luck on Draw, we're talking 5-6% DPS increase on a single target overall...on a SUPREMELY OPTIMAL DRG parse that's like an extra 70 DPS. I'm willing to bet that WHM's new dot and oGCD/MP-free Fluid Aura and Assize can easily do that much, WITH the added healing security to boot.)
