Just watched your video--I've already levelled WHM (won't be continuing SCH past 50--while I was able to make it work for all content, I wasn't able to meet its potential using crossbars and I'm not up to the task currently with the additional skills), and AST is at 55 and rising quickly. I'm really enjoying it, it was quite the challenge when I first hit AV at level 47 trying to level in DF, but now I feel fully capable in either Diurnal or Nocturnal in all the post 50 content I've been in.

Anyways to the point, I felt the video was really well done. I'm always looking for others opinions on card usage and every now and then I learn something new. There were quite a few subtle details outlining some of the AST skills which I greatly appreciated learning about, and I'll probably recommend the video to some FCmates who aren't getting through content quite as smoothly as I did.

Personally I've been running dungeons in Nocturnal a lot. Not because I think it's better--it's not, but to get a feel for it. What I'm learning is that there are situations suited to Nocturnal, things like the first boss of Dusk Vigil where he stuns a party member in place and then attacks them, but overall Diurnal is the superior stance. To my own stubbornness my intent is to move forward playing in Nocturnal when shielding is ideal, and Diurnal when regen is ideal, taking my own potency in the two stances out of the equation. So far I'm finding mob pulls where regular damage is consistently happening, regen is king, but on a lot of bosses (not all) shields, especially instant cast ones, are very useful. Of course when I start raiding a bit I'll let my own stubbornness subside, and probably utilize Diurnal almost exclusively... Well, unless we get something awesome this patch--hoping for stance dancing
