My problems with AST buffs.

[Yumi_umi]

Things change each patch or so.
Some classes become better than others from nerfs buffs etc which wasn't the goal of the devs but it happens ( mostly due to the community)
Its like any other online multiplayer game,
Mobas, racing games, fighting games, shooters.

They will always make adjustments. So ast might be op this patch maybe not so much the next patch.

This is my 1st mmo and even i know this basic concept lmao.

Op you should just take back what u said and retract ur attack cuz ur about to get disarmed.

Now its range is justified and it is like our little Whispering Dawn :3

And o m g. Synastry!

That is exactley the problem "Our little whispering dawn" why? why give them rebranded stuff instead of something new?why not fix the card issues of drawing the same over and over, why not combine ewer and spire and add a new card, ability to favourite a card and increase the odds of drawing it, add a card which acts like an instant heal , or maybe a card that makes one spell OGC. How i see it is now you have 3 healing classes, apples apples and more apples with very minor differences in the colour of your apples, but all taste the same. They deserved buffs yes , but i why give them adlos/regends and cure 2 instead of working on the unique aspect of the class.

Do you even read the rest? Srsly if you post something try to bring something contructive instead of accusations and insults.

How is CU a rebranded whispering dawn? You can use it only when all your party is very close to you, you have to channel it, it has damage reduction, it has a longer cd, it's not affected by any cd while whispering dawn can be enhanced by rouse and fey illumination and you can use it while doing other stuff since it's a fairy skill and it has wider range so you can use it more freely. What the hell are you talking about? If CU is a rebranded whipering dawn, then whispering dawn is a rebranded medica 2, so where are all the whining WHMs then? Jeez. You're just proving that you don't know how AST skills work.

'Cause at this very moment, we're healers who have buffs... sometimes (thanks Spire). But I doubt there will be a huge change in things since I believe that's beyond SE's comfort zone and unrealistic in terms of resources & timing. But who knows!?

Spire is meh in dungeons but a godsend in raids when tanks are going out of TP.

It's Spear that I'm most worried about right now. We're mathing it out in this thread http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...y-it-is-useful. and even using it on a NIN, a class with lots of short CDs that is guaranteed to pop them off in the 20 sec window, you're actually better off RRing the Spear to double the duration of the next buff instead...

Honestly at this rate the forum mods r gonna lock all these ast threads because its getting out of hand of how many threads r popping up instead of posting in 1 mega thread of " your thoughts/ opinions on the new ast changes etc"

Cool but i got a static , only my clas individuality feels threatened and i played many many many mmorgps and class individuality is very important in an mmo, classes need to be different not rebranded and recycled skills.

omg physick is just a rip off of cure, for the sake of class individuality i think sch should be forced to heal with adlo only ...

see how stupid that sounds? every healer is gonna be more or less the same so get off your high horse go level your AST to 60 and then start making comments on it's performance

I have news for you. There are only so many ways they can make them original, while still being useful.

There are forum mods in here?
I thought with all the shit spewing nonsense, insults throwing left and right and thread after thread about the same bloody subject meant there are none.

Anyway on topic:
I would have loved nothing more then they waited to 3.1 and completely overhauled the ast from the ground up. Make the cards part of our healing, remove the rng and try to give us more of specialization.
However this was not too be and we the current buffs this will sadly never happen. We will forever be healer limited because of an akward buff system.
