In Regards to 4.0 AST

[Ceasaria]

So if the videos are correct, Noct stance aspected benefic heals for 200 potency and gives a 300% heal shield, whereas SCH's adlo heals for 300 potency and gives a 100% shield that doubles if it crits.

...Doesn't that mean Noct AST is casting almost the equivalent effect of a SCH crit shield every single time? So AST shields will on standard be better than adloquium unless adlo crits? And this neglects Noct's +15% healing potency stance effect and their stronger potency and effects for their AoE shields.

Hmm... Maybe I should consider switching to an AST main after all.

Yep that's why I think Astrologian will take his place. White Mage will be the main healer.
All will depend of the fairy, if it will be nerf or not.

They also get the 15% heal buff so I think noct shields are stronger than crit adlos. Given that, and while sch isn't in a bad position, I do wonder if the meta goes AST/AST in 4.0.

I doubt SE would let that happen (unless they allow cards to stack)
