Things currently wrong with frontlines that the community would like to see fixed

You walk into a group of people and hope it removes something useful. Chances are it'll remove protect, or featherfoot, or something equally as useless.

You're using Retro wrong.

Using MY OWN video to try and make a snipe at me? Lmfao the DESPERATION. If you want to see something funny, maybe you should visit https://xivpvp.com/character/9194610/Ice-Phoenix

Retrogradation isn't meant to be used running into groups and popping it, you're going to ofc be removing protect, etc. 1) it's good for group wide sleep/bind/heavy, removes them easy. 2) keeping an eye on enemies, when you're not healing you should be giving support with Stella/Disable/Malefics/blizz2 so if you see a SMN just pop AF and have no buffs up? Pop it.

Running into a zerg will either get you killed or spend more time healing yourself getting another party member killed. This whole fight with Retro vs. Aura Blast is stupid, they are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SKILLS.

Hardly. I just find it funny that you act like you know everything there is to know about PvP and yet have something like that happen to you. I don't care if people see my profile? I think for queueing solo my win rate is pretty damn decent. I don't claim to be a great player by any means- although I'm willing to learn if people have the logic to back what they're saying.

That makes more sense, then. But as I said I don't really see the skill as being AST's trump card, so to speak.

I completely agree with this, though, it is dumb. I just don't care for the circlejerk going on that AST is the king of pvp healers- which is hardly the case. All three healers have their uses in SR. To me, AST is good as a pocket healer/mobility, but you start pressuring multiple party members with dps as opposed to just one and AST will not be able to keep up the heals.

If a party was only going to have a single healer, I'd prefer it be scholar above the other two due to utility that has already been described in previous posts within this thread.

If you have a look here http://www.twitch.tv/xxczx/v/36820017 you can see I removed the WARs Maim and (I think, can't make it out properly) DRGs Heavy Thrust. That right there is a 15% decrease in dmg to DRG and a 20% from WARs

Hardly. I just find it funny that you act like you know everything there is to know about PvP and yet have something like that happen to you.

I don't act like I know everything in PvP, I only started PvP in 3.0 there is A LOT I still don't know about but if there is one thing I do know about, it's the classes that I main in PvP albeit I have gone off AST and am going back WHM main when I first started. And I posted the video to laugh at myself, if I didn't find it humorous, why would I of posted it? Everyone knows I'm EU most crappy DRG

And I haven't really implied it's AST's trump card nor do I think it is. It's trumps are actually their cards, eh ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Also @ the solo healing comment, I actually prefer AST. I've solo healed a lot of 24s, even asking other healers to switch because I want more of a challenge but that's all in the matter of preference.
