Yeah, I'm familiar with the story. I was definitely disappointed when ASTs got "Helios" as a skill.In Greek mythology, the Titans Hyperion and Theia had three children, the goddess of dawn Eos, the goddess of the moon Selene, and the sun-god Helios. While Eos is healing and Selene is hasted support, there was a lot of speculation based off dev chatter back in ARR that with HW we might get a 3rd fairy specialized in buffing, but this obviously turned into the reveal for ASTs. Perhaps it was considered early in development, but we will likely never get Helios since he's been repurposed as the name of AST's AoE heal.
I suppose we'll have to find something else Greek to name our flying dude.
