Astrologian questions =)

[Aikeiko]

I'm a level 55 Astrologian now, and I just did my first Heavensward dungeon (The Dusk Vigil)

I just have a few questions.

1) Should I now be using Benefic 2 over Benefic now? It seems like Benefic doesn't do enough healing anymore.

2) Seals. Should I always aim for a Lunar, Solar and Celestial seal, or are different seals OK too? I've been trying to aim for all three, but sometimes it feels impossible.

3) Cards. I got Lord of Crowns and Lady of Crowns. Should I proc these after I get my seals and during Divination cooldown?

4) Diurnal / Nocturnal Sects. Which of these should I be using? I've been sing Diurnal almost exclusively.

So far, I REALLY love Astrologian, and I'm very glad I chose it. I love the card aspect, and the Diurnal and Nocturnal buffs.

You spam Benefic 1 and it has a chance to proc Benefic 2 to always crit, when it lights up that's when you use it, ofc if hes getting hit really hard you can spam Benefic 2.

Seals you should always go for 3, The spell is had right now so its not really important, a tip is if you have 3 seals but only 2 different ones you can still get the 3rd different one if you just draw it and put it on someone. When you got the seals and divination is on cool down just minor arcana every card until divination is back up.

The stance is your choice when your solo healing, people go diurnal slot because its regen, you aspect him and then dps for speed clear. I personally use nocturnal because when your high enough level you get a spell that's the opposite stance, so I use that as my regen but also have chunky shielding, use opposite stance as your co healer as shields and regens don't stack for the basic spells only CDs. Like I said experiment with both and find what style you like for dungeon play.

1 thing I can say is the class doesn't come together until you get all your spells, this expansion added some good stuff even tho it isn't good on paper, it fits and works really well. Astro is a time healer and you will discover it in time

1. It depends. Just use the one that's necessary Unless the tank is fully geared, and always use Benefic II if you end up in Stone Vigil. They actually want you to cast the regular benefic which can proc an instant crit version of benefic II.

2. You really shouldn't worry about getting all of the unique seals during progression. Just try to get as many different seals as possible and use divination followed by a lord or lady of crowns and stack them together for a 8-10 % buff.

3. Yeah, totally. The cooldown is like really long, so it's not like a loss if you do it.

4. Diurnal is like way easier since it's a regen healer, so you don't have to memorise incoming tank busters. Shield healing is about preventing damage beforehand so it does have higher risks and rewards, IMO
