And that's pretty much exactly where it has to land: 90% of the healing and emergency potency of SCH/WHM, with the cards being beneficial enough to close that last 10% gap.

Due to the RNG of the cards, sometimes ASTs will be giving 110-120%, but most of the time they'll probably be more around 90-95%, but the POTENTIAL to hit 120% will justify it.

Again, I'm hopeful for ASTs. They fixed warriors up properly and I'm sure they'll do the same here. I don't begrudge Yoshi-P one bit for erring on the side of caution. Savage world firsts SHOULD be a big deal, not a week one thing because ASTs were shipped overpowered.
