    How about some nerfs for AST instead? Now THAT's something I would love to see... though it will, if any of the two, be buffs because SE are just awful with stuff like that.
    Statistics in the raid community don't back up this stuff you are saying.

    https://www.fflogs.com/statistics/21#class=Healers

    #of parses in the last 2 weeks (as of this post):
    Scholar: 42,563
    White Mage: 40,233
    Astrologian: 23,301

    SCH and WHM each have almost double the amount of participation in sigma savage. I don't have previous week data but I've been keeping an eye on it and AST has always been below SCH and WHM in participation by quite a bit this whole tier so far.

    I'm not saying AST needs a buff because of this...I main AST and besides maybe a bit more pDPS like an instant spell Stella to weave I don't think they really need much, but the statistics show AST is under represented by almost half..

    I also play WHM too and never been asked to switch to AST.

    So maybe you are playing with the wrong people?

    I honestly expect MP reduction on Aspected Helios to follow the recent reduction on Succor. Besides that I'm afraid of possible buffs on Diurnal AST that is already very powerful and I'd like Noct to get some love since Scholar is back to the absolutely broken status it had on HW.

    Other than that maybe Malefic cast time reduced? It's one of the most requested AST changes since SB launch. One can dream.

    Personally, I believe they need to buff the potency on the normal Benefic. As it stands right now, using the normal benefic in end-game content is pretty unviable.

    Do you think the proc would be more useful if it didn't have a duration time like MCH's ammunition?
    That way, you can save it for a big heal.
