Few AST questions..

[RulerOfPotaoes]

K so i finally hit 50 and the road to 60 starts yet again since i main whm and its lv60. any how.

Nocturnal Sect Stance. What are all the skills that trigger it? and how much damage mitigation does it provide?

also as soon as i hit lv50 i put on my ilv120 gear set and AST seems to have very low mp. do they get a significant bigger mp pool at 60?

Noct effects the same skills Diurnal does, so Aspected Benefic, Aspected Helios and Collective Unconscious (at 58).
Benefic is a 250 Cure + 250 Shield. Helios is a 140 Cure + 140 Shield. CU is a 10% damage mitigation for anyone inside it.
Noct also gives you a 5% magic potency buff.
I'd suggest staying in Diurnal for any content you are the only healer in, but feel free to try what you are more comfortable with.
As for MP, I'm sitting at 11,998 in i181.

The same skills as Diurnal sect. Aspected Benefic, Aspected Helios, Collective Unconscious.

Really? My WHM is at 11k something MP and I'm only at i157 at the moment.

The Gordias Gears give low Piety.

Curious...I am at ilvl 182 with 13.2k mana. Is your spec split up or something?

One thing to keep in mind, is that nocturnal sect increases permanently your healing potency by 5%. Not much to look at but still..
Which means that total potency of your aspected helios is 147 shield and 147 heal(3 potency behind SCH)
And aspected benefict comes up at total of 525, which is 75 behind SCH and can't crit, but is instant cast and costs something between benefic I and benefic II.

It's still rather worthless in general and when you later on compare time dilation advantages on diurnal... then pretty much only time you should be using nocturnal is when you are with another AST.
But nocturnal asp. benefict does have a meaning - instant heal and shield, saves lives sometimes.

I don't have WHM at 60, but my SCH and AST both have 433 PIE (obviously since they share gear). My AST sits at 11,988 MP while my SCH sits at 11,498 MP.
Asked a WHM friend and he told me he's at 11,959 MP with 427 PIE.

Edit: You may have upgraded different pieces from Gordias that have more piety on them, also if you use the law weapon it adds 61 piety (unupgraded) while the hive weapon has 0.

I have half of the Asuran set and half of the Gordian. Sitting at 620 pie - I was just curious as to how you were so low. So I am guessing you're still gearing some? On the bright side if thats the case you have much to look forward to in stats :-)
