i got it how to fix AST!!!!

[Alexia89]

WHM = Priest
SCH = Paladin with pet
AST = Druid/ shaman (with celestial magic)

No. If anything, Scholar would be a Disc priest as mentioned above. WHM is more similar to a Shaman tbqh (though Holy Priest works too).
All semantics though- on the topic of your idea, it sucks.
That would mean a complete and total overhaul of Astro and that would take a lot of development time. They don't NEED an overhaul, they are fairly capable already- there ARE people clearing the savage content using an AST so we know they are capable there. If ANYTHING they just need a few tiny tweaks, particularly in the Nocturnal Sect, and they will be more than viable.

Pretty much this. They can "fix" it without redesigning all the spells, plus it would take way too long. 24 man raid is also around the corner so they certainly don't have much time, especially since esoteric gear is bound to specific classes. The sooner they apply the tweaks, the better.

WHM is more Holy Priest cause of the raw healing power both have, and also powerful holy spells.

AST is more like Shaman cause unlike the other two cause they can buff others, like Shamans can with their totems.

And SCH is like Disc. Priest cause they both are barrier healers with smart healing. What's smart healing? It's automatic heals. The smart in the phrase is that it prioritizes whomever was the most injured, and in the fairies, case they do this too, even if it's themselves. It's just that both has different methods for smart healing, where the Disc. Priest have to attack with holy magic to smart heal, the Scholar has a fairy.



Anyways to the OP. No that HoT healing thing is a terrible idea, and you don't need to think EXTRA hard on when to use a card. They are the supporter healer. They cover which ever healer isn't there when dual healing, and have the cards to buff everyone to greater offensive extents than Selene ever could, while providing excellent support with the other cards. I am getting sick of seeing ASTs blaming anything but their inability to even decently manage their MP. I'll be lucky if I see someone other than myself make it out of a fight above 66% with everyone topped off and well.
