Possible AST nerf

[Exiled_Tonberry]

I like how people think the solution is to buff the other healer to broken levels.
Do you people even know what powercreeping is?

Let me ask you, why are people asking for buffs to the other classes? If they are doing perfectly well, how does anyone know there is a problem. There's your answer. Mark my words, if AST is nerfed, all 3 will be boosted next.

Most of the buffs requested, if you actually read the posts, are to abilities that are either extremely underwhelming (Plenary Indulgence, Excogitation) or inefficient to use (Fey Union). Note again that AST doesn't seem to be having these issues either. C:

Again, go back and read them. You'll see the majority of posts will be regarding abilities such as Excog, Dissipation, Fey union, Embrace, Plenary Indulgence, Lillies, Bane, Sacred Soil etc etc. The only reason people are asking for potency buffs are because AST currently beats SCH/WHM in most things.

Also, regardless of whether you like it or not, healer balance can only be achieved with a mixture of buffs and nerfs. Unless you actually want to see AST nerfed to the ground, but I'm sure nobody here wants that outcome.

The biggest complaint I've seen is on the faerie healing and the damage the faerie takes. Neither of them back your claim, and both affect raw healing power.
