I know, I know, wait until the nerf is actually implemented to see how it works, but still.


I think we could all argue that something could have been done about Aspected Benefic in Nocturnal Sect. It made ASTs utterly annoying to deal with, sure, but they could still be countered and kill.

They were not infallible, nor were they unkillable. Merely a nuisance that required more co-ordination to down, same as all healers.

So, the shield nerf doesn't surprise me. What does is the potency. Cutting it by half. On all accounts, that's ridiculously harsh, especially since PvP was the only place where you could use Nocturnal Sect with it actually being better than Diurnal.

We could argue all day over whether Astro deserved the nerf, but we can all probably agree on is the fact that the nerf is HARSH. Too harsh.
