@Richiealvian Was it no issue double shield with your sch parter because you co-ordinated your shielding, because the damage was constant enough for shields to always be popping, or because one of you didn't shield much and focused more on raw healing? Were one or both you able to dps much?

edit-also did you stack virus/disable and cu/ss or trade off who was using which cd? Basically having more constant cds or having very potent double cd
It actually worked out perfectly. There are parts where I was solo healing (well, could say I copied the other AST's video), sch could dps and I was the only shielder. Jagd doll comes, I get Fey Illumination and we were healing different tanks. SCH doesn't have a Benefic 2 powerhouse, so a 7k buffed benefic 2 is just really awesome. If anything my only pet peeve was that I did 26 dps the whole encounter. Only braved myself to use gravity 2-3 times the first few pulls. The difference is crazy, 4.3k becomes 4.8k that's just amazing and will scale more with gear. The shields also do save you from some oh shit situation, it's like a somewhat extra lustrate cause in total it's over 3k unbuffed. Also, essential dignity is buffed with noct as well.

At some point with conva and stuff I remember critting for 16k.. that's really massive.

Here's our clear video, we did have some oh shit moments with the tank..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwerbtDeBFw
