AST low DPS overblown?

[Braven]

Yeah, SCH is really good despite lower potencies, for the same reason as AST. Potencies are only slightly less than baseline white mage (~6%), and easily made up with the free global cooldowns granted by not casting regen spells in addition to all the aetherflow skills that go off cooldown faster than whm. It only takes like one or two free actions over 60 secs (eos free regens provide more than that) to exceed white mages higher personal damage potencies. Of course chain stratgem is great for boss enemies for the same reasons as expanded cards.

Is that 25% considering cards or chain stratagem? It also makes sense for AST to heal the most in multi-healer compositions since it hurts their DPS the least to do so and their gCLD heals are stronger than SCH. As a result they will less damage but heal a lot more. If everything is taken into consideration and healing and skill are equal, I think they would be very comparable.
