Possible AST nerf

[Ootarion]

"Whm has better damage" not enough damage to out dps a aoe balance

Yes your right whm has so much mana that it's pointless you only need that much mana if you plan of rezing like 10 people and that means we are going enrage anyway

What are these "several powerfull cds?"

Tetra? You have essential dignity and that's in every way better then tetra

Benediction? You have a aoe benediction on a 60 sec cd if charged if not charged it's a aoe tetra

Asylum? It's a okay skill but most time I just throw it down whenever it's on cd it's not a game changer if anything it's ment to save mp

Bension? Is a joke (it has potential)

Only powerful cd I can think of is presence of mind and ya that rly is a strong cd but lightspeed is pretty damn close to being just as good

1) WHM vs AST damage: I have done the tests myself, my lvl 60 WHM can choke out more damage with DoTS ALONE then my lvl 69 AST can, Balance or no Balance. Furthermore WHM and AST are both healers, their damage will never be anything compared to DPS damage and even with the AoE Balance, WHM will still hit harder then AST.

2) Tetra vs Essential Dignity: Tetra's healing is far more consistent then Essential Dignity which starts at 400 potency and gets stronger the lower the target's health while Tetra has a baseline constant 700 potency.

3) Earthly Star is not a Benediction....far from it, Benediction's healing is an absolute FULL HEAL, Earthly Star doesnt come close. An Earthly Star at maximum power CANNOT fully heal a critically injured Tank. Also are you forgetting Plenary Indulgence?

4) Asylum's advantage comes in the fact that you can place it anywhere, with Collective Unconcious it is centered on the AST and you cant move at all.

5) As for Bension, I can see where people would think of this skill as a joke, but is that really an excuse to nerf AST?
