    ANd in the real boss fight afterwards you wont have the healers help you out with dps because they will be kinda busy.
    unfortunately you dont have the option to not dps, maybe around 3.15

    as an AST its really really hard find time to DPS. And MP is a problem too so i really dont know how can a AST do card management ,healing and 450+dps as people says...

    *Yoshi-P said they calculate the dmg based only on DPS and tank damage so i think healers should have an option to NOT dps if they dont want (or if they arent able to do it like AST at the current state)

    If you are only going to do something because of what yoshi said then you are only going to clear it when he wants you to. You may as well not step into A1 right now, it's not possible without healer DPS.

    Never do. They're usually bug filled holes in the first week.
    That's your loss. You're missing out on a chance of a drop and a guaranteed token just because you don't want to DPS. You're holding your group back until your tanks and DPS get better gear. Faust and Oppressor are well designed and simple mechanically, and you have a ton of time to throw in a few DoTs. Not buggy either.

    And also I say again gear up first.
    It's true though. Every bit of DPS helps with Faust, and you want as much burst as possible before the second Oppressor spawns so it has less HP. There's nothing to stop you going into Cleric Stance to cast your DoTs, you have stuff like Regen/Aspected Benific/Selene/the other healer to heal while you can't. There are plenty of chances to DPS with no risk like during Resin Bomb cast. Sure, you can wait until you're better geared if you want, but you'll miss several weeks of drops/tokens. Or you could take advantage of your full skillset and clear week one.
