I have had people in my FC comment on bad AST's ... but I feel I do just fine with it and rarely have problems with wipes caused by lack of heals.
You can really tell the good AST's from the bad AST's based on how they handle their buffs and healing. I think Stance also affects it a little, but I'm not sure which of the two is stronger.

All I know is, Library, I've run with a Warrior tank, and on one of the runs had an AST with the audacity to say "Warrior can't handle this pull"... when we could easily handle it with a good WHM or SCH. It was pretty amusing to watch them try to blame it on being a Warrior.

I think good AST's are great and will really prove themselves in time. 'sides, they give me red cards for days.
