Thanks for proving that AST can clear it just like the rest it just takes the team doing the right things.

Yes and as mentioned before by Richard and many others lol, ONLY if everyone makes little to no mistakes (actually you JUST said it yourself, it takes the team doing the right things, which doesn't happen all the time) and it is quite a struggle compared to WHM. There should be no reason for you to be struggling on AST when WHM and SCH can ease things by a far lot. If the 3 jobs can't contribute to the run equally with the same gear, there is a lack of balance. It's as clear as the sun.

Richard said that yes, it's a big feat completing it with an AST and that is precisely the point. It shouldn't be like that! lol It is a big feat because the job clearly, is weak. No, it's definetely NOT "like the rest.". Anyways this has been said over and over and now I just feel some people are just being purposely blind to not admit what is right in front of them. Go try savage A2+ on AST and tell us how it goes, though.

...Or you could take a SCH/WHM and give your team the leeway to screw up a little bit because even the best mess up once in a while (or get hit with lag spikes...).

Why would you take a healer that objectively places more of a strain on the team?

Progression raiders bring the strongest possible team for a reason, and even non-progression raiders (who are likely to make many more mistakes) aren't going to want to wipe again and again because someone wants to play as a less effective healer.

I mean...
"It's totally okay that you bring a weaker healer that brings absolutely nothing to the raid team that other healers don't, and we totally don't mind that the ensuing wipes will do nothing but waste our time and cost us repair money, when you could've instead brought a SCH/WHM and we could've cleared the content instead." - No Competent Raid Leader, ever.

I'll give people a pass if they're actively trying to test AST's potency, but beyond that, there's NO reason to bring an AST right now.
