It changes a lot. WHM having the power to blast an off-GCD every 90s is not something that will flip the table in healing as much as people claim it would. In 4-person content, it's not needed and in 8-man it's also not needed when your healing partner also have access to it. Using both Indomitability and Assize is not necessary in any encounter designed so far, so AST not having anything like that is not hurting anything and it's hardly something that brings the job down. WHM having no mitigation is not regarded as a problem, so why would AST not having a not needed instant cast AoE healing skill be a problem? Stop trying to transform AST in a WHM with cards. If they had all the tools a WHM has, WHM would become useless; is that what you guys want?

And for the love of god, if you feel boring only adding two DoTs and spamming Malefic, don't play WHM as well. Fluid Aura is barely a thing with its 30s recast timer and range, and Aero is a potency loss most of the time; and you have that as AST as well, so you can argue that they both DPS in the same way. Now tell me: why is doing it as WHM a nice way to DPS and doing it as AST a problem? Double standards.
It's so annoying having to respond to ridiculous claims over and over, so please stop.
