There are too many variables to say the dungeons hit exactly the same. As someone who rushes the holy trinity to cap and tends to try out the weakest jobs at the begining of each expansion there is a stark difference. I would argue this is actually worse than AST on release back in HW and that was really really bad.
AST is the only one that arguably sees the “healing is harder” statement—however, it’s an outlier. The other two don’t struggle nearly as much. That said, it’s no where near the mess that 3.0 AST was. Let’s not get carried away here.
