Possible AST nerf

[Ootarion]

If they nerf the shielding strength of Aspected Benefic and Aspected Helios, I swear I will not play AST anymore. I was growing sick of having to rely on Diurnal before SBs launch because Nocturnal shielding was just awful. AST is fine where it is and I even swap between Diurnal and Nocturnal as needed, please dont nerf my class D:

Your shields are stronger than a SCHs right now unless that SCH crits. Top that off with cards and you have effectively pushed a Job well out of a Job lol. You need a few nerfs you shouldn't be that strong when you bring entire group buffs and make the group just outright better just by being there.

If SCH and WHM are falling behind, they are the problem, they are the ones needing a buff. AST is not the one that needs to be changed. I never once before used the shields of AST because they just simply sucked. I see no point in Nocturnal if the shields are just going to suck again.

You do realize that, as far as development time goes (which costs money), it takes a lot less time to alter 1 job than it does to alter 2+ jobs.

That doesnt matter in the slightest, not when it comes to proper balancing, you dont nerf a class needlessly just to avoid buffing two others when they obviously need the buffs. This isnt how you properly balance. It is obvious that SCH and MAYBE WHM are underpowered right now.

How about they just leave job skills alone and work on que times for dps instead. hour+ que time for dungeon way to long.

The number of DPS outweigh healers and tank, they can't just fix that, unless everyone goes to tank and healer instead. Or quits the game. How do you suppose they fix such a thing when player numbers are the cause?

The only other way is a very expensive process of adding way more slots in the data centers. But that still won't fix the number of DPS users vs other roles. and since DPS attract newer and players that don't like responsibility it's going to continue to be higher.

For real? You do realize SCH is under performing right now more than AST is OP. Yeah, nerf AST so all jobs can suck equally.

On a side note, I find it funny that 2 years ago 'AST sucked please rework'. Now it's OP and everyone is crying over it.

AST healing needs a rework like BRD got. it shouldn't have a SCH stance and a WHM stance, that's weird.

Two years ago I had a house of my own, a good job, and marriage prospects.

Now I'm living with my parents, single, and unemployed. A lot can change in 2 years.
