AST is more of a "noob trap" than OP, imo...now if we're talking Wolves' Den, then it's just ridiculous.
Most classes take a minute between being able to dish out burst damage. I play mainly DRG in PvP and once I'm out of jumps, BoTD, BfB, etc... it takes about a minute or two to get all of that back. The fact that SMN can play at a range with an AoE that deals 3k+ damage sometimes 5k makes it blatantly easy to abuse in a 72 man match. as far as soloing a SMN, as DRG that is really easy.
Don't get me started about AST, it's not a noob trap, the class is clearly better than the others especially when a GC isn't coordinated about sleeping it and focusing down other healers first.
