I tried to do the transition and... I hate it.

I had to do 2 or 3 times more work to do what I already do with WHM. It's very clunky, the card system is boring and have no decision making anymore, it plays pretty bad on joystick, it's attack potencies is pitiful (remembering that I use WHM for everything, specially to solo, not just to do selected hard multiplayer content) and hits like wet noodle (even with same equips).

The only upside I see is it's buffs. But even those don't change the fact that AST feels weaker than WHM, gives more trouble for essentially same thing I solve with 1 or 2 buttons with WHM. I feel I am more useful to the party playing as WHM.

As SCH, however, I feel it hitting as hard as WHM. Potencies wise. It's clunky as well, but it is on a bearable level. And its shields is something that really makes the difference when soloing. Lost the count of how many times critlo saved my sorry arse from a tankbuster.

I feel that I just need to understand better the late kit and build confidence to make the switch.
