    Mind > Crit = Det > SS
    Wildcard: Piety.

    My reasoning beyond mind is that crit & det are the only modifiers to our heals. Stacking det is fine, but since AST has no Fey Illumination or Divine Seal, AST is going to really want to maximize what they can get per GCD. At least that's my reasoning anyways.

    In addition, if an AST ever goes in Nocturnal Stance, Crit Shields are always better than non-crit shields loaded with DET.

    Spellspeed is increasing HoT heal, so you might want to look into it if you play in Diurnal.

    Individual ticks of HoT buffs can also crit!

    Crit if you play Nocturnal, Det if you play Diurnal.

    Crit and det for both tbh. AST's lower pot heals benefit more from the crit, shields benefit and the HoTs can crit too so just crit all around.

    And when Essential Dignity crits it's just so sexy.

    Any AST playing in Noct sect of their own choice needs to have a slap in the face.

    When I picked up AST at level 30 my immediate thought was Crit--spamming my tiny heals, that sudden crit would be fantastic. Further along I'm seeing more usefulness out of Crit.

    From what i heard, Spell Speed doesnt really increase hot heals by all that much. Not enough to warrant stacking it anyways. The majority seem to favor stacking crit though.

    So far, I have favored Crit and Spell Speed on AST (with still trying to load up on piety too).
