That's kind of the end of the line. There is no tactic which would make a Noct sect anything but terrible to pair with a SCH, especially because you have Diurnal to use instead.
No one is telling the SCH not to shield o.o". I have not once advocated that the SCH not utilize their shields. No AST should be demanding anything of the other two healers. No need to "dumb down" what hasn't been said. And besides, I'm fully capable of handling complex reasoning when well explained. Dumbing things down is actually a hindrance to clear communication, as you tend to leave vague gaps in your explanation.

For some reason I was thinking I hadn't hit 50 with AST yet.

Although I did have some gear issues in Aurum Vale previously.
Aah, see now that makes more sense. Please tell me which boss you're having trouble with, because I know for a fact I've run DV in Noct, and the only problems I've had were on the player end.
