For all the guys with tunnel vision concerning the state of nocturnal sect...yes they doubled the potency when they halved the shield, but that only means noct is at the same level it was at the start of 5.0 shieldwise. And I seem to remember this forum exploding because AST was complete trash then. Diurnal received a far greater gain, while it was already stronger.

On the topic of the thread, I didn't main healer before, but enjoyed playing AST in SB dungeons. Now that they removed time dilation and the stun + extend from CO, as well as the homogenization of the cards, it is completely uninteresting to play. The second I saw this patch being basically only healing potency changes, I knew AST was dead to me.
