How could you do this to AST?

He has a point. I agree we still don't have enough information to know more about this pure healer direction for AST, but forcing the job into playing a role similar to WHM doesn't seem like a good idea on paper. And now with this notion that, for 8 man content, you have a separate queue for the two types of healers? That's concerning, and again, it sounds bad on paper. I don't play AST, but since its introduction in 3.x, it's supposed to be a hybrid job. This just makes healer mains even more concerned, especially what happen to the role in 5.x. Based on what we have, one could assume SE is forcing healer mains to play 2 healers instead of their preferred job.

since release ast has been a pure healer with shields tacked on because of the shield regen dichotamy and noct has been incredibly weak and flawed for most of its existance until sch got destroyed this expac
