What's different here is that it doesn't really matter because, as I said, unless Arrow gives a 1,000% DPS increase, it's not going to make AST worth it.

The individual benefit of the speed increase is likely felt differently on every class, but again, Selene's buff still beats the piss out of it and it doesn't make ASTs worth bringing because it's not going to end the encounter significantly faster or anything of the sort.

I don't know if you're looking for a "What about Breakfast at Tiffany's?" situation here, but sorry, no, this ain't the "one thing AST got".

There is 0 reason to bring an AST over another healer. You're better off going SCH/SCH or WHM/WHM if you have to than anything/AST.

1.5% for each of 8 people, which is a cumulative increase of 12%. If we want to call it 1.5%, we can, we just have to then divide AST's 1.5% by 8 to get the actual number since we're only casting that buff on one person instead of 8.
