basically, i was originally going to level SCH so i could have a dps class on the side to help with questing, however, since playing SMN, i've come to the conculsion, that this is not for me, pointless tank pet where the only healing skill you have does a tiny rain drop heal... anyway, i'm torn between stick with SCH or going AST, i like them both, but AST seems like the better option, considering in every way AST is better at shielding and healing than SCH ever could be, plus the mechanics of the card draw system are really interesting, but then you got the fairy healing on the other side with SCH, so i'm having a really tough time deciding, could use some wisdom from other players, currently my SCH is 63 and my AST is 62..
