Another comparation between AST and WHM

[GideonHighmourn]

People throw numbers at how no one takes astrologians into savage raids and use numbers quite often as a means to measure strength tied to popularity and overall health of a job in particular but once it is applied to balance against your arguement you invalidate your opponents arguement as trolling?

There is absolutely zero correlation between (how you feel about) the population of AST on your server and how it's skills compare to WHM/SCH's, which is what this thread is about.

Please keep to the discussion at hand or it may make you look bad.

You are the one who brought made-up numbers (based on how you feel, not actual data or research, which at least Ghishlain provided) pertaining to the population of AST into a thread about comparing skills of AST to WHM, not me.

Only because I see people post pictures that are setup for scholar and white mage for healer in parties. Conjecture to battle conjecture. The only premise people truly have to argue against the astrologian to begin with is direct comparison of a white mage vs astrologian which is in itself a flawed way to even argue as to why the Astro falls behind. White mage blows the astro out of the water on emergency situations because that is what the white mage does.. At the core I am one of a handful of people who try to stem the tide of so much overwhelming negativity coming across a job that minus two cooldowns that need a change, ben 2 proc buff and allowing astro to stance dance somehow does not need anything else. Our healing minus white mage cooldown use is within the margin of a few % of healing math wise and parse wise.

When I see people ask that astrologian get healing potency boosts I just raise my eyebrow and say what the fudge?

And isnt everything people are bringing up just basically based on what they feel since astro's have proven they can heal savage mode alexander the only thing they have to go on is how they feel the job is so inferior to white mage and scholar they have to let everyone else know how the feeeeel by posting thread after thread after thread after thread of the same thing.

When the ninja job came out there were easily 10 threads a day as to why it was OP and should be nerfed to hell and back then after it was tweaked two weeks later to still show up within 5% of being in line with monk dps you saw another 1 month of belly aching that the job was weak and only summoner would surpass it as being kicked out the most in raids. Same premise different topics.
