My problems with AST buffs.

[Assirra]

As someone who has AST on the side, it's clear that SE did in fact changed their unique identity with the buffs. Of course no one is complaining that the buffs were weak but by changing some of the skills mechanics and not just the numbers, you change what was unique of AST.

The changes most have in question are:

Collective Unconscious now gives 10% dmg reduction and a regen buff that refreshes once inside. This poses a few problems. Firstly by giving both the effects of diurnal and nocturnal, you now lessen the amount of decisions a player has to make. Decisions makes interesting gameplay in my opinion as you actually have to think about things. Now I have to care less about what stance I choose at the beginning of the fight.

CU is a 58 spell, it should be powerful. the fact that the nocturnal version was a lot worse then the sch bubble was insane on itself.
Maybe the regen is a bit much now but it was utter shit in it's previous state.

Disable i agree on tough, it was fun timing it right before a big attack rather the now when i dropp it near one.

Dissipation is 60 and its crap , ET is 58 and is also bad, now proceed to tell me how "overpowered" scholar is and how balanced and fair those buffs to astrologian were.

So because 1 thing is crap the other to be crap? I never used the word overpowered btw so keep your hands out of mouth or next time i bite your hand off.
Anyway, i hope they fix those spells in the long run. Astrologian simply had priority due the dire state they were in.

Anyway this is my last post here because these arguments have now turned very childish it seems.

ET is bad?

Honestly...

If you run your aery or whatever content you are running sure ET is useable, otherwise is just a waste , you will either a)overheal b)make your whm partner overheal / make their medica 2 ticks overheal, after raidwide dmg in this game there is a big pause before the next, if you use ET succor AFTER the raid dmg it will only make medica 2 ticks go to waste. You are far better off with a shield that cannot overheal and will stay on the target regardless if they are at 1k hp or full. There 0 reason to use ET , if you use it on adlo , god forbits it crits because 50-60% of that is just a huge overheal.

At the end of the day you are better off with the shield by far, or oh when you are duty finding some casual content and you get another sch as your partner which is irrelevant if you have a static.
