Can we please continue removing GCD heals to the point where we have none?

You don't recall when it first came out, AST was out doing WHM at healing and DPS. I remember that in 3.5. I remember being kicked from 24 man raids because I was running WHM. I remember trying to get clears on EXs and joining a party, then getting kicked with an "Oh, we forgot, we don't want WHMs".

AST is just as powerful as WHM, i've healed right along side ASTs that can keep up with WHMs in ALL aspects. So...if you are saying AST is "WHM-" you need to rethink how you're playing it.

The WHM- thing was only 5.0 in Shb. I didn't read all of the patch notes of Heavensward or those for Stormblood.

Currently at 5.5, the only thing AST is better than WHM at is the Single Target boss encounter in a party of 8. I don't think AST is WHM-, they are just another healer for me.
