SCH vs AST?

[o3o]

il point out a few things...

sch heals are stronger in general on top of having a healing pet that constantly pumps out heals.
sch has a much easier time with mp then astro because they have aetherflow.
sch currently now has a powerful oh shit button that can be used 9 times back to back to back with a 1 second recast time that can be used while moving.
sch has better and more reliable damage support then astro just in the selene pet which spams a action speed buff with a 30 sec durration and 60 sec cd (50% up time) on top of already doing more damage while the pet is still pumping out heals.


asto has weaker heals then the other 2 healers in general in exchange for being able to choose its healing style (hot's or shielding) and RNG buffs that are for the most part unreliable.
astro has a buff that actually lowers its healing power considerably in exchange for instant casting which is for the most part useless because a swiftcasted heal is usually enough for most situations and doesn't lower your healing potency by 25% for 15 seconds.
essential dignity is the only real oh shit button they have that is about the power of a cure II only when the tank is about to die with a 40 sec recast time
they have a harder time with MP then the other 2 healers due to only having luminous aether as the only means to recover mp.
their bubble skill collective unconscious is very clunky (cannot move at all or use any actions while its up, you have to be in the spot you want it to be because it is not placed) while being exactly the same as either sch placed sacred soil or whm placed hot bubble depending on the stance.
