    Oh oops. Mixed both for some reason.

    Still, starting 3.3 aspected helios will have 120% mitigation rate +5% heal bonus compared to succor. +300 MP sounds a pretty fair. It's the same as medica II vs asp. helios +200 mp for +5y range +10 hot potency.

    Noct. Aspected Helios with its 120% buff is honestly just to supplement the fact that they don't have as much mitigation as SCH. 'Cause Adlo Deploy is ridiculously strong, especially when you can deploy off a Convalescence tank, yet alone Defiance Warrior. The changes are just to make AST a safer defensive healer considering it also lacks a lot off oGCD healing that Scholar has.

    (Opening another can of worms) There's also a thing with how healing magic potency (the total stat your character has depending on your stats & weapon) will always be tiered from WHM being the best and SCH being the worst.

    I don't have the same weapon kind for each of my healing classes but with my current gear here's my H.P Potency per class.

    White Mage (i228) - Hailstorm Cane (i230) - 1231 Healing Power Potency
    Astrologian (i232) - Midan Metal Astrometer (i245) - 1224
    Scholar (i230) - Augmented Hailstorm Codex (i240) - 1195 Healing Power Potency

That is balanced by the fact scholar maim & mend also increases your pet healing power by 40%, so its a bit unfair for scholars to be compared to other healers without considering their fairy.
