I remember reading somewhere that HW was only slated to have DRK and MCH as the newest jobs but they added AST in at the last minute...and if that's actually the case, frankly it showed with how poorly designed that job is to this day. The spell effects of AST are gorgeous and I love the job's overall theme, but the Sect system is lazy and terrible and was a really strong demonstration IMO of how overwork really stifles the dev team's creativity when it comes to new healers.
