Astrologian IMO

[Vlady]

Its not a "healer forum drama" its the obvious fact that AST is INDEED weaker.
How can you be so blind?
Are you being paid to say such amount of nonsense?

Actually I understand the white mage and scholare are stronger in there respective fields. My only beef is people say astrologian is so weak that the job is next to useless that is my issue when it is not the case. Yes we need some more changes and they will come. I just wish people would stop trying to outright falsify that the astrologian cannot do the job and do it well enough to hold its own.

Most of the players agree that AST can do the content, but they have way too much trouble doing so, compared to his fellow healers.
Its not useless, it is just weak.
And as a player who loves AST i'm really looking forward to the changes and i hope they'll worth the wait.

No one ever said astrologian is useless by itself. However when compared to other two healer, they are pretty useless(a.k.a no being used/wanted/respected/brought into savage), given that there are only room for two healers.


Something that i feared will happen to astrologian is already happening, that everyone, healer or not, has the opinion that Astrologian is utter trash.
The other night i was helping a friend run Sohm Al, on the T-Rex boss i informed the one of the dps that its okay for him to take some aoe damage, that i wont let him die. His response was "That might not be the case(keeping him alive) with an AST." I got quite bitter, bitter at SE for dumping AST into such trash pile that even in a level 53 dungeon I was called an incapable healer (I did not let anyone die in that Sohm Al run). I imagine even after buffs and fixes, it will take quite a while to change community's opinion about Astrologian.
