If you want your AST to have no MP anymore sure, bring a Noct AST instead of the godly SCH. Bringing the Noct AST also means less rDPS since SCH actually does good DPS and AST just does not buff enough to make up for their lack of DPS and lack of healing which forces the WHM to have to cut into their DPS to make up the healing slack. Whereas a SCH can pretty much solo heal currently and let a WHM use their massive DPS to make up for the lack of AST raid buffs.
