Developers : Healer design mentality needs to change

[BloodRubyXII]

Pretty much agreed with "there's too much in the kit". Astrologian is a good example of this, for a while at the start of this expansion the kit was overloaded because up until the later part of savage raiding, you didn't even need half the buttons. No-one ever spams Benefic 1 for a B2 crit proc. People barely use B2 as it is because you can GCD loop on Malefic.

At the start of the expansion AST was probably the only job where it felt justified that it had so many abilities in it's kit, the healing was so laughably weak that you actually needed all of them. Not that it was super difficult but you actually needed to put in some work compared to WHM or SCH and used most of those abilities... except Benefic 1 because that thing is simply obsolete.

The further we got into the expansion the less this was the case as AST got several adjustments and we all know what the situation is now.
