With AST it gets a bit complicated as you don't have anything as powerful as Tetra/Benediction or Lustrate x3. DPSing as an AST is a bit risky but it's rewarding, at least to me as I can DPS better as a WHM or SCH, makes sense though as they don't have all those buff.

    But I'd like to have some sort of high damage on Celestial Opposition since WHM have a 300 potency burst with assize, plus healing and maga regen on the same skill.
    I can usually do that quite easily on AST just Essential Dignity with aspected benefic/benefic II. Essential dignity is every bit as good a panic button as lustrate/benediction because of how fast AST's cast times are (especially on diurnal)

    I tend to do that too now that I'm used to it but I can see it being quite the struggle to DPS a big pull on AST and save the tank at the last minute compared to WHM and SCH. But I think Lightspeed kinda makes up for it, as a 10s swiftcast can be really OP on the heavy-heals department. I just wish I could have other sources of damage, although I'm satisfied with AST's current state, but I wouldn't mind some small changes or a little buff.
