So...why is there still a Nocturnal stance?

I think it's mostly because if you have two AST in a party, their HoT's don't stack. :B
Noct does hold a special place in PvP though... >o>

True, though they could just make them stack and then what do we need Noct for?

I believe WHM's HoTs stack with two WHMs, though I've not checked in a while...

Is this another bait or troll topic?

Not at all. Even with its buffs, Noct just feels underwhelming.

You get massive benefit from time dilating a tank with both your HoTs running on them. Shield? It'll be gone in 1-2 hits tops anyway...

WHM's HoTs do stack.
I think them keeping the sects has more to do with that fact that they advertised the whole stance-dance stuff when they first revealed the job.

Well how often are you going to time dilate anyway?

I usually time dilate my cards, not the HOTs.

It's not like the entire class revolves around time dilation....

Sometimes shields are nice

If I draw Bole, I'll place a Aspected Benefic on the tank before Time Dilating them.

This is a joke right?

It's because people who do White mage/AST parties would be completely screwed in the mandatory mitigation department without it. I thought that was obvious.
