Done with AST

[Rox_Unlimited]

I can't comment about ast in savage, but in the expert dungeons or normal alex, I have not ran into the difficulty so many people are talking about even in such simple content. Even in full pug, where things go wrong. Especially since the recent buffs we got.

Synastry and Lightspeed actually saved us from wiping on a big pull in neverreap, where I know if I was on WHM it would have been a wipe.

But, I do still think ast does need a buff for nocturnal sect. I was talking to a friend about CO in noct sect, and his idea was that it should increase potency. Of both cards and shields.

I litterraly LoL'd. 1st If your gonna wipe on Nevereap I don't know what to say, I can literraly do the dungeon in my sleep. 2nd. How would you even wipe on White Mage???? You have Benediction, Tetragrammaton, Prescense of Mind, DIVINE SEAL+REGEN, Asylum, Cure II, Cure III, and Assize. I can stay Cleric Stance 95% of the dungeon with a Warrior in Dilverance and still have no issue. Sorry to tell you but 4 little instant spells (that you also still have to wait or the GCD) and healing another person for half of your heals probably wasn't going to be a wipe anyway. There's litterally nothing a AST heals can do better than a WHM or SCH because they have far superior CDs.

I litterraly LoL'd.

It was a DRK who didn't use any cool downs and a BLM who aoe'd too soon. So both were "tanking" half the mobs at the same time. WHM cannot cast fast enough to keep something like that from being a wipe. Synastry, CO and lightspeed followed by benefic 2 and aspected helios and then more benefic 2, and essential dignity at the end allowed the tank time to get better control and use cool downs as the DRG suggested. PoM, holy, DS and tetra would not have been enough.

In a good group, I can also spend most of my time in cleric stance. But obviously, that was not a good group.

I'm not saying im the best but you have far to many cooldowns and yes PoM and Holy DS and Teta are enough. That's also why if your BLM is pulling then either he needs help or your tank needs help.
