That's something true for every video game and it has nothing to do with the AST job. My raid group has been getting worse results in A1 Savage because I'm playing SCH. We can clear Faust, but my WHM healing style does not allow me breathing room to go into Cleric Stance. He's not using the 2.x meta, so the WHM/SCH pairing is hurting the group; with AST I'll be able to back him up more with heals and this will give us both breathing room to DoT. I have cleared everything there is to clear in 2.x with both WHM and SCH and have been playing AST since 3.0 early access.
Still trying to go with that, "I played poorly on SCH, therefore AST is fine." argument, I see.
