Has anyone quit healing?

Funny enough in this speed kill meta astro diu is being played together with whm. So whm doesn’t need to heal at all and can go full damage.

Shields and mitigation are needed for some of the speed run strats. Stacked brambles, not killing the E9S adds, and E10S cheesing the line orbs furry boss kind of things so no one gets a damage down. I'm not even going to get started with E12S.

Yes but in that case they're specifically for "ignoring" mechanics, not simply surviving them. And sure, you might need shields this raid tier (couldn't actually be bothered to do it this time) but what about all the previous ones? Besides like I already said, when you actually need shields on AST you have neutral sect. Shields have become significantly less important with ShB.

you can use neutral sect for all of them
