Astrologian "BUFFS"

- Essentially Benedition Dignity

Even at roughly 1000 Potency (its max potential, it means they're down to like triple-digit HP), Essential Dignity's in no way comparable to Benediction.

It barely keeps up with Tetragrammaton and is left in the dust by Lustrate. It's at the perfect intersection of too-long-a-cooldown and too weak to reliably compare with the other classes' emergency/MP-free heals.

Anyone else noticing Ewer/Spire randomly not applying or applying and immediately disappearing? I've seen it happen multiple times now; I was using it on a DRK tank, and every other time Ewer would just disappear after I used it.

Ewer doesn't work on DRK anymore due to Darkside negating all MP restoration effects. Ewer used to just reduce mp costs so it actually worked for DRK, now it is just single target mages ballad.

You so cute. :')

Spread is a move that holds a card, not spreading it over the entire party.
(I'm explaining this because you obviously thought Spread = AoE when I didn't reference AoE in my post, is k, don't worry.)

So that's not RNG, that's 10% damage reduction. - Yep

5% more heals done than WHM/SCH - AST heals are also 5% weaker than whm/sch counterparts therefore net gain of 0%!

Nocturnal Sect = 5% heals + Cross-Classed Cure = ???

I'm very happy with the Ewer change. I only ever use it on myself (or my co-healer if they need it), so an MP regen in addition to Lumin Aether is awesome.

Some people are incredibly ungrateful. Most mmos won't change a class so early in to an expansion. Get a grip.

The only way they'll ever stop whining, Mortalitasi:

I5% more heals done than WHM/SCH

To me, that looks like a sexy 5% perma heal buff with a 30s win-rate of awesomeness.

As our true savoir once said: gitgudscribs - Yoshi q

Huh? 5% "bonus healing" raises a 380 potency Benefic (akin to Cure/Physick) to 399 which is, hilariously, 1 potency short of Cure & Physick.

EDIT:

Nocturnal Sect = 5% heals + Cross-Classed Cure = ???

Oh! That's interesting. I'll actually try that.

[UlricCraft]

Okay, maybe I didn't explain myself as well as I thought.

Cure is 400 potency, with Noct Sect it raises that by 5%.

I was merely joking at the fact there are ways to get more % healing out of AST to lighten the ever depressing threads complaining about Square Enix.

It's okay. I laughed so hard for not thinking about this xD My FC followed suit too! I do love my Surecast, but I think I'll test out Cure to see how that goes. This reminds me of the days where I used Physick on my White Mage for a few not-so-difficult dungeons because I liked how Physick's icon looked. \o/

Ah, didn't realize that. That really sucks, then. xD

Thanks for the heads up.

Don't worry Ulric, keep being awesome.
