I don't get this sort of thing.

Isn't part of the big reason why people like Scholars the fact they can just do so much damage? How would nerfing the fairy do anything but make the WHM heal more? WHMs are already arguably better for 4mans, if not just as good as Scholars.

>>145618330
It doesn't matter what they nerf. If SCH healing drops at all, groups will immediately push to have the main healer overcome the difference before the SCH will be expected to. And if the a6s nerfs say anything it's that they aren't going to try and force the off-healer to simply heal more through heavy raid damage because that's too hard for most people.

>>145618347
WHMs ARE better than SCH for 4mans, but that's mainly due to set up time. Holy + Assize + Aero III shits on SCHs AoE because they can't set it up quickly enough for it to matter before everything dies.

People like scholars because their fairy is MP free, shits out a ton of healing and utility, and they have great sustained DPS. If you take the fairy away, people argue that all it will mean is that WHM's will have to heal more, but I doubt that.

Fairy is too invaluable to just throw away and expect a WHM/AST to cover

>>145618347
WHMs have the highest dps and healing of all 3 healers, the issue with WHM is that its limited by their bad mp regen so they can't dps too much or they'll go out of mana pretty quickly. They're also limited to how their dps works, since most of their dps comes from stone III spam, they need to sit on cleric to dps, while scholars only really need to be on cleric to apply dots and go back to healing.

>>
>>145618743
Which is meaningless because AST/WHM can't keep up the sustained damage for more than a few minutes without running out of mana.
>>
>>145618725
WHMs are only better on the pulls where they can unleash chain holy with assize and aero 3. Now that there are so many gated pulls(fuckyou yoshi), SCH is ideally better because it can have the same consistent DPS on every pull no matter what. Where as WHM is more suited to nuking down several large pulls because they won't have the resources to do that on every pull.
>>
Guys, if the fairy gets nerfed, what if the new meta is to have WHMs solo heal and have 2 bards constantly rotating through ballad?
Even with 20% damage reduction from ballad, a bard can do more dps than a scholar.
>>
>>145618172
If it doesn't work the first time, it won't a second or third time.
>>
>>145618330
If they nerf scholar I think they will either go after the shield crits (nbd imo) or the pet. I think if they really nerf it, instead of just some token gesture, they will want to reduce the effectiveness of the job while in clerics, or somehow make it so that you don't spend 90% of every fight in clerics.

The real implication of that, assuming you're considerate and don't want to totally fuck over your WHM, is that DPS players are going to need to make up for the loss of the scholar's DPS. That puts the ball in the DPS' court, no more 75th percentile shitters passing checks because you've got a 90th percentile scholar.
>>
>>145618986

Since SCHs have such good MP management, why not also have the fairy draw from their MP pool? Give Embrace half the MP cost of Physick, Whispering Dawn the same cost as Succor.
>>
>>145618910
>All of fairy's healing can be covered with a couple of cure Is
>Expecting a WHM with already mediocre MP management to cover all of that

WHM solo heal can brute force fights like Thordan and Seph once everyone has sufficient MP and dps are killing things fast enough.

And in any realistic encounter where it's used as insurance. Don't bother responding if you're gonna recite some arbitrary "well if x happens, then y should be no issue" scenario that only looks good on paper.

I'm switching my main from diurnal AST to SCH.
I just got the job to 60 a couple days ago as my static reshuffles and I honestly have no fucking idea what I'm doing, can't even find a good guide.

Outside of my opener, should I be saving Aetherflow stacks for healing and mitigation purposes until the cooldown is about to reset, then use them for Energy Drains?
When exactly should I be using Sacred Soil? is it worth it to use it for single raid busters like Bioarithmetics or should I use it only on short periods of intense raid damage like phase 3 Nignogg Akh Mhorn? Is it ever worth using just to mitigate tank damage?
What should I be saving Rouse for, if anything? Should I just use it on CD if nothing particularly demanding is coming, or should I save it just in case?
Is Emergency Tactics useful for anything besides doing the main healer's job for them?
Should I ever use Dissipation to help the main healer through tough parts, or is it just for when they die?

What's even worse is that 90% of the ASTs you look at out of the 30, if you go to their page, they have clears on WHM too. Their first clear (maybe even first few) is with WHM.

Even LESS people are running AST for progression. Most ASTs on that scoreboard are in a group that's already farming A8S. Often times, their fastest WHM clear is far faster than their AST clears too. It speaks even more for the state of the job.

There are plenty of PLD clears despite their stigma. There are plenty of MNK clears despite their stigma.

>>145626774
Because the truth of the matter is most groups don't care to compete for parses and if WHM is easy then players will choose the path of least resistance. Basically the casual shitter mentality that made no one do the first implementation of savage coil, no one was hardcore enough to give up free loot for bragging rights. Bitch niggas probably play choose easy/normal if there's a difficulty setting in any other game.

a class being popular among groups beating the hardest fight in the game IS significant. This isn't overall general population numbers. And why do you feel compelled to say my name here? Did Ayase's autism infect you while you raided together, Bokchoy? You literally got your clear the week before catch-up patch, I don't know why you think you're an expert.

And I argue the same point every time because no one offers a proper explanation. Raid groups doing a8s don't give a shit about stigma, they will run what works. If AST is allegedly so superior to WHM it would have way more clears than it does.
>>
>>145627058
I don't know if AST is good or not but I've been playing WHM for 2 and a half years by now so I wouldn't really feel as comfortable switching for a marginal gain on paper.
I'm pretty sure if I did switch, I'd do worse than as WHM.

You guys can't into reading? Processing numbers?
AST numbers are lower than WHM for flat healing just compare the skills yourself and SCH is just too damn overpowered in HW to ever be replaced, their kit is overdone and they have too many useful tools.

So its easy, you are in progression, you need that extra healing so you go WHM. After you get your loot and gear and shit is easy, you can just use AST to pad your numbers. Why are you guys so passionate about this shit anyways? Its not like you are locked to your job in this game, you can change freely between them, why would you not have all the healers leveled in this game if you plan to heal in raids? Thats the least you can do, understand all the jobs related to your role.

Jesus Christ you guys are autistic.

This.

Every tank should be expected to know the 3 tanks, healer the 3 healers, and same for casters and ranged.

>>
>>145625878
>>145627398
AF should always be on CD but when you use stacks depends on the fight, your group and your co-healer. Don't duplicate effort with your WHM, let the fairy and regen ticks do their work. I use mine more often for energy drain than I do for healing, but lustrate and indom are clutch. If you know the tempo of a fight and how damage comes out you will know whether you can use them for damage or healing. I will use stacks for more healing when I am learning a fight, Indom is broken as fuck.

Sacred Soil is for big hits and high raid damage when people are stacked it's the same as CU.

Rouse should ALWAYS be on CD, it's the most powerful healing spell you have.

Emergency tactics is extremely useful for topping a raid with succor. You can use it for tank busters too and for Living Dead. It's a very good skill and people don't use it enough.

I only use Dissipation for extra energy drain stacks for damage and rarely at that, usually for a fight that I have on farm. If the damage is intense enough to warrant a healing buff you can use Eos, who is crazy powerful

>>145628321
This is what most groups do, and they still settle for WHM over AST, but will go DRK over PLD even though PLD is easier to work around for most situations except when living dead immunity time is OP

I have no idea.

When PLD was less desired than DRK, people switched classes without complaining.
When MNK was less desired than NIN/DRG, they switched too.
When BRD was less desired than MCH, they also switched.

But when ASTs have been asked to switch to WHM or SCH, they go into these huge complaining fits. It doesn't make sense.

Except that every big raiding static wet dream is being able to use ASTs cards to boost their numbers, they just don't do it because AST still has a hard time clearing the healing checks unless them and their group are crazy geared.

Just ask any healer worth their salt what their group want them to do, the dps thirst for those Balances dude, they wanna put big numbers in the fucking fflogs. They just don't do it because its not all groups that are good/equipped enough for it.

2.0, 3.0 and most likely 4.0 raiding doesn't permit that flexibility as those updates usually bring job locked gear.

Also one thing that sucks as healer is that there isn't a way of measuring a good one from a bad one so people go by trust and people don't trust ASTs right now and all 3 classes play somewhat different to the point a great WHM won't be a great SCH or a great AST as each healer heals differently each phase.

People were discussing AST replacing WHM and you thought that bringing up replacing SCH out of nowhere counted as an argument. So did the other posters. Nobody said shit about AST replacing SCH; it's common knowledge Nocturnal Sect is shit.

WHM it's already the most offensive of all healers, it just burns through mp like a fucking steam train. SCH is the least offensive however it's the way shields, fairy and dots work that makes it so offensive compared to WHM.

>>145630625
Yoshi P has already said he wants to fix SCH and make AST/WHM work, so the problem is going to be fixed eventually.

Besides that, we aren't getting a 4th healer come 4.0, because we're getting Red Mage and Samurai, both of which will be a tank or a DPS.

Not him, and I'm not even Bokchoy. But your responses to the problem of AST viability ARE autistic because they make you sound like a piss-baby scholarfag who needs to get off his pedestal.

AST needs to be destroy? AST will only work if SCH and WHM are gimped into the ground? You sound like a fucking toddler whenever I see you argue on reddit. All this doomcalling and trying to kill off a class that needs help balancing wise just so you can keep your guaranteed raid spot makes you look like a tool, like the rest of the SCH community.

I think it's pretty obvious they'll introduce a healer and a tank in 4.0, so far all the jobs they've introduce have attempted to make it so that no job has a fixed position and needs to be in every single raid group.
With NIN and MCH they succeeded, with AST they clearly meant to make it a jack of all trades and failed to make it viable as anything but WHM alternative, and frankly I've no idea what the fuck they were trying to do with DRK but in the end they just made a PLD replacement.

It's clear they don't want WAR and SCH to be obligatory picks, so unless they do some substantial redesigning to AST and DRK chances are we'll see SCH and WAR alternatives introduced next expansion.
Same way they turned Summoner into a fucking DoT based pet class they could pull some nonsense out their asses and make Samurai a tank and Red Mage a healer, or just introduce something else like Blue Mage as a tank holy shit that'd be amazing.

tfw discussing is suddenly acting like a toddler some how. I can play any job, it doesn't matter that much to me what healer comps are. AST is the biggest disappointment of HW as far as I'm concerned because of how it's designed, and how they are attempting to balance it by tacking on extra values to stuff. In the end AST is only getting better because they are making it more like WHM. A noct AST will still not appear in any progression because it's poorly thought out. SCH is stronger because it has things neither WHM or AST have in serving the same role, and what AST has that SCH doesn't does not fit the meta.

This isn't about dick waving about which healer is best. AST just doesn't measure up to WHM and SCH in healer compositions in challenging content, and as I've mentioned before, the clears of each job for high end content is the most significant data point when judging these jobs. You can look at the PLD and DRK clear rates for Gordias and you can see a problem, and then you can work backwards and identify why DRK was superior to PLD. I don't understand why the same thing can't be done with AST. I've reasoned out why I think AST lags behind WHM in terms of healing volume, and there is a plethora of reasons why AST isn't taken over a SCH (it's basically a gimped WHM with shields with none of the complementary stuff SCH has for the meta).

I push this point really hard, because when I provide my rationale that I've developed I just get hit with a bunch of exceptions and excuses, I'm literally trying to bait people into providing the rationale if mine is incorrect. "stigma" doesn't account for the discrepancy, I'm sorry. The best I've seen is "WHM has more healing throughput and is therefore the safer option", which I'm more than willing to entertain. But that's a reasonable person giving that suggestion, the ASTs like Bokchoy directly contradict it by asserting AST can do exactly what WHM can no matter what regardless of progression phase.

>So unless we some substantial redesigning of AST and DRK

The power level difference between tanks is nowhere near the power level difference in healers. When you talk about the strength of tanks, the difference nowadays is fairly minimal. WAR is still the best at OT, but we're talking no more than a 150 DPS or so.

With healers it's a bit different, obviously because SCH is so stupidly good that it's mandatory.

Also, that's the problem. Instead of balancing an entire role against two classes, the smarter thing to do would be to nerf the op classes. They've nerfed shit in the past, so it could happen.

This game's healer role and tank roles can't survive if they're constantly balanced around one class being OP and untouched. That's why they're now hinting at SCH nerfs. Because it's absurd to make an entire role aspire to ONE class.

In its current form, SCH is nigh irreplaceable. You'd have to seriously create a monster of a class to replace it.

WAR and SCH present the exact same problem to job balance, though at different magnitudes.
WAR and SCH are fundamentally designed to be off tank and off healer in every way going from their core mechanics to the higher damage they deal at the cost of having worse but arguably burstier mitigation and healing.

No matter how much they nerf the jobs or buff the others, the way they're designed makes them irreplaceable because there simply is no alternative like there is for the main tank and main healer roles.
This is a problem that cannot be fixed without the introduction of new actions or jobs, because the problem is one of design and not simple numbers.

"Discussing" and preaching the end of times for SCH and WHM just because a class is getting fixed are two totally separate things. One is actually explaining what your opinion is of a class, the other is looking like an entitled prick because you want your raid spot guaranteed.

I don't think anyone will disagree that AST was poorly designed. The double-up theme just didn't work, and it comes across as weird. But at the same time, one of the healers was going to be kicked from the parties with the introduction of AST. If AST was designed as a SCH replacement and gave WHM a free hot seat, it wouldn't be fair.

AST's design makes sense if you view it as SE trying to make the class viable in any situation so that no one healer was mandatory. Obviously they fucked up, but to insinuate that it's a bad class at this point is stupid. Diurnal AST and WHM have similar spells, yes, but they place almost entirely differently.

I've seen Bokchoy's arguments against AST and I've read yours. Both make sense, but even you yourself in SEVERAL of your posts admit that AST is underrated and needs love. You yourself admit that there IS a stigma against the class because people underrate its potential and its toolkit. WHM is designed for more raw healing power, and people like that safety net and see it as more appealing than AST's cards and added mitigation.

Of course AST needs tweaking, but you outwardly dismiss it altogether for no reason. It's basically a WHM with tools that aren't useless after the first month or so. While "stigma" doesn't count for the entire discrepancy, it accounts for at least part of it. I have not seen a class get shit on as much as AST does.

Fuck, there are daily threads on reddit, posts on here, posts on the OF that constantly bitch about how the class is NEVER going to be good enough. But they're two different animals. AST and WHM are not the same, and play differently.

The very start of your rotation has so many buttons you might as well learn how to play the piano, but once you get past that it's one of the simpler though most enjoyable jobs in the game.
Unless you get into the highest level of min-maxing, which involves stance dancing in unintuitive ways under tight restraints to get about 1% extra DPS, which is fucking hard but also unnecessary unless either you or your static is plagued by crippling autism.

To be honest, the problem with SCH as it stands isn't even that it's nigh-impossible to replace it with another healer. It's just flat out too fucking strong to design content around, without either making content that's trivially easy to handle with SCH's toolkit, or so ludicrously demanding that it's basically out of reach of all but the top couple tiers of players.

Then they're going to be adjusted in some way.

SCH wasn't "designed" as an off-healer, it was designed as branch off from the Arcanist route. To make up for the initial lack of healing power, they tossed in the fairy and stupidly realized their mistake later on.

With all the tools a SCH has now, they could easily mainheal, especially with Eos (though it'd be far from optimal.) SCH's design was poor, and even if it will always fill the off-healer role, no new class could ever hope to replace it as it stands right now.

>"Discussing" and preaching the end of times for SCH and WHM

It was definitely (and overtly) hyperbolic. But no one can deny we're seeing homogenization for classes are some level, and all the changes to AST are 100% "let's make this more like classes that already exist". It's more of a lament for the unique identities between healers that is gradually fading.

>but even you yourself in SEVERAL of your posts admit that AST is underrated and needs love.You yourself admit that there IS a stigma against the class
I think the value of the mitigation of AST over WHM is underrated. I think the value of DPS cards over WHM and SCH stuff is overstated unless you're trying to pad a parse. That's about it.

I don't disagree with anything you've said in general terms, because most of what you say is basically what I'm saying in different ways.

AST is just harder to work around for healing. It plays like a 2.0 healer in 3.0 fights.But saying that gets your crucified by random people on the internet, who are more concerned with trying to name shame you on anonymous image boards than actually discuss it.

>>145633434
Consider BLM or MNK.
They're still pretty deep jobs if you want to go further than an average player, but they have a more reasonable amount of buttons.

Really, the only jobs with piano rotations are MCH, SMN and NIN, every other DPS is much lighter on that regard.

>Identities between healers gradually fading.

It isn't, though. That was the entire point of my post. AST and WHM have similar skills but they play entirely differently. People see
>OMG SAME POTENCIES CURE II AND BENEFIC II ARE THE SAME THING

And then will completely ignore the traits for them and how it matches with their playstyle. Just because a class was adjusted to make its heals stronger doesn't mean it's now suddenly the same as another. You need to stop looking at the differences between AST and WHM at face value.

So their potencies are the same on some skills, so what? Who cares. They play entirely differently.

I do disagree with you, though, because I think AST is just as viable as WHM when it comes to progression raiding. I think the problem is that people see excess healing as more desirable than added mitigation and party buffs. This isn't a one-sided street; it's not like WHM is just flat out better than AST. AST beats it in a LOT of areas.

People aren't trying to name shame you, but it's annoying because any time anyone ever so much as mentions AST being viable you jump in with on cue every time. If you're tired of being crucified, stop insisting everything you say is true and that people arguing otherwise are just idiots who don't know how to play.

I wouldn't say "beats" but rather matches. In the areas where AST can't provide raw healing, it makes up for it with mitigation in the throughput stance and cards.

Mobility, MP management, card buffs are not synonymous with making up for lack of healing.

>It isn't, though. That was the entire point of my post. AST and WHM have similar skills but they play entirely differently.
Same base healing pattern, special proc for using your weak heal, one skill that does enmity/mana regen stuff, one skill that makes things go faster, one thing that increases your healing potency, bubble that regens HP, skill that is an instant cast heal. They are all superficially different skills with "gimmicks" or slightly adjusted values to make them just different enough to not be the same thing. SCH healer pattern is distinct from WHM, AST should be designed as such too, if it isn't anymore obvious AST was originally a CNJ job....

>I do disagree with you, though, because I think AST is just as viable as WHM when it comes to progression raiding.

AST beats it in a LOT of areas.

Viable is not really the question. I don't deny the viability of AST. PGL is probably also viable. Viability isn't the issue, the issue is what you say in your second sentence. "desirability." Things that are harder to do and less efficient can be viable, but in high end raiding WHM is more "desirable" for a reason, and it's not because WHMs are just spamming heals.

>People aren't trying to name shame you, but it's annoying because any time anyone ever so much as mentions AST being viable you jump in with on cue every time.

I've only had this conversation in these threads twice, now and once before. I jump in when I'm around for it and feel like it, that's how discussions work. And I wills top insisting everything I say is true when everyone else stops insisting what they say is true, including you.

snagging that will ease the burden of leveling another job if you decide SCH and SMN aren't for you. you'll also get the first dungeon set equivalent for free on the job you do it on, though you can go back and get the other sets any time. there's one for casters, one for tanks, and one for the blob that is the rest of the DPS early on.

>Similarities on skills mean the class is EXACTLY THE SAME
By your logic, PLD and DRK might as well be the same class as well. Shadowskin and Rampart are the same thing. Shadow wall and Sentinel are pretty much the same thing, too. They both have a tanking stance and a DPS stance.

What's the difference, then? The play style. The insinuation that because classes share similarities means that they're the same class is absolutely ludicrous. I don't mean to be that person, but have you actually PLAYED AST? It's nothing like WHM for the reasons you stated. Playing AST like WHM or vice versa means you're going to do a shitty job of it.

>Viability isn't the issue.
Then people need to stop memespouting it on here as such. You argue against it's viability in prior arguments as well.

Viability =/= Desirability. Maybe a class might be more desirable in some instance, but that doesn't make class B any less viable. Class B is desirable in other instances. Viability implies it can't be used ever; desirability implies there's more of a want to use it in specific instances.

>Twice, now and once before.

And yet it only took those attempts to make people annoyed with you. It's not your argument, it's that you present it as:
>AST is bad. Anyone who disagrees with me is retarded. Where's your A8S clear? See, you're bad. AST is bad. Delete AST Yoshi P, thanks.

I say what I say and how I say because my opinion reflects most of the community at this point. Diurnal Astrologian is a fine replacement for a White Mage. Nocturnal Sect Astrologian is garbage. That's what people feel like everywhere; the only holdouts with the "AST is garbage 4ever" opinion are people on here. Maybe WHM is more desirable than AST for this raid cycle or the next. That doesn't mean it has no viability.

99% of the time healing issues on charibert boil down to the rest of the party fucking up and eating mechanics. the AOE healing is not too significantly heavy and the tank 'busting' isn't too bad. if your tank was doing fine elsewhere in the instance, people fucking mechanics is the most likely issue.

>By your logic, PLD and DRK might as well be the same class as well.
Yep, I definitely agree. Of the three jobs only MCH has managed to be unique through wildfire rotations and their proc system. And I've played AST a lot. Where you'd do something on WHM, you'll do the equivalent action on AST but less effectively :^)

>Then people need to stop memespouting it on here as such. You argue against it's viability in prior arguments as well.

If I've argued against it's viability it's my poor wording or I'm using viability in a different context, like not what AST is capable of, but the possibility of people picking up AST. I assume that's where the confusion comes from. I'll clarify here though I think AST is viable, but I don't think it's as good as WHM.

>And yet it only took those attempts to make people annoyed with you. It's not your argument, it's that you present it as:
More like one person and probably a couple of his friends. I'm sure my Ayase comment got under someone's skin, I don't think Bokchoy anticipated how much I know about him and his raiding.

>>AST is bad. Anyone who disagrees with me is retarded. Where's your A8S clear? See, you're bad. AST is bad. Delete AST Yoshi P, thanks.

I've probably said those things in some form or another, mostly jokingly or hyperbolically. Should focus on my arguments rather than the superficial tone. Also, I usually avoid bringing up clears altogether unless people start pushing about it, or pullout some bullshit garbage like namedropping me.

That said, I think AST is garbage because it tries to be a WHM but fails, and is a testament to poor job design not just because of how much of a mess its been to make it desirable for raids, because the way it plays is rehashed WHM stuff, and the same thing bothers me about DRK for what it's worth.

DRK should have had cooldowns that function like wildfire in terms of giving you temporary eHp buffs based on damage dealt, and other hp enhancing cooldowns similar to thrill of battle. All while relying on lifetaps to help sustain these temporary buffs. DRK has always been about life taps, and yet WAR still excels at it in comparison.

Because it is.

I don't even know Bokchoy but he seems like a pretty cool dude from what I've seen of him on reddit. He (usually) posts his opinions with actual factual data, even if he gets to also be a snarky cunt at times. I have no idea who the fuck Ayase is

>Should focus on my arguments rather than the superficial tone.

Maybe you should focus on making an argument than just superficial memespouting, because 'AST is bad' isn't an argument. :^)

I think AST is a good replacement for WHM and even makes up for its shortcomings. This is the only place I visit that insists Diurnal Sect AST is shit. You agree with that. There are arguments that can be made for or against it. Either way, it's just petty ego waving at this point. I'm just going to agree to disagree. You don't like AST, other people do and will take it in favor of a WHM.

You do the equivalent action on AST and do it faster. Benefic 2 procs to be instant, Aspected Benefic has 20 less combined potency but it's differently distributed and shorter, Essential Dignity rewards you for dealing some damage and only healing when you have to.
It's not worse, it's trading raw numbers for flexibility.

>Should focus on my arguments rather than the superficial tone.
You do this to yourself, things like that little :^) in the previous quote turn the tone of your post from a solid argument to a well thought out shitpost.

>I think AST is garbage because it tries to be a WHM but fails
I think AST's design is garbage, but the job itself isn't. In the end it is like a creatively bankrupt WHM reskin, but the result is a solid job that offers the same role as WHM with a handful of pros and cons instead of a completely different deal.

Not them, but benefic 2 procs are really bad game design by being on a timer. The timer for cure 2 procs is fair because you have nothing to lose by using it because it costs no mana anyways. 9 times out of 10, my benefic 2 proc never occurs when I actually need it. It should just stack up to 1 so the "instant cure 2" actually has some real sort of advantage over whm's free cure 2 proc.

>>145636813
Alexander is level 60 stuff but I think you mean you're level 50? Just talk with Minfillia and keep going. You'll need to kill Garuda, Ifrit, and Titan on hardmode some time to keep going, but don't worry about that. You'll know when you need to do it, and people can carry you if you're concerned about being dead weight. The extra optional stuff like dungeons shouldn't be too hard, but EX primals will probably be rough.

That idea gets floated every time we're on the subject, but the problem with it is that it would just exacerbate the current issues.

Instead of having the current situation, which is that the WHM handles the heavy lifting healing-wise, with the fairy supporting them, and the SCH doing almost full-time DPS except when you need shields or excessive healing, you'd have a WHM forced to handle even more of the healing load, since they wouldn't have a Fairy to back them up, while the SCH stayed full-time DPS except when shields or excessive healing are required.
>>

>>
>>145636990
The difference is that WHMs NEED that proc to help with their mediocre MP management. Instant cast Benefic II is just a side benefit.

AST doesn't have an MP-saving proc because it doesn't need it. WHM does.
>>
>>145637032
wanna test it?
>>
>>145636813
First of all unlock every single level 60 dungeon and complete them at least once, so you can do your roulettes for tokens. Prioritize Sohr Khai and Hullbreaker Hard for Expert roulette.

Then start running Alexander Midas normal through DF, they're fun fights but the difficulty is low and the rewards useful if you're just getting into things or gearing an alt.
The real raiding endgame is currently the Final Steps of Faith Extreme, which is just a harder version of what you just did for the MSQ, which you can probably do through Party Finder with some dedication if you're on a good server; and Alexander Midas Savage, which is too hard for most people, has driven more than a few to quit and absolutely requires a static.


Ask as many questions as you like in the next thread.
>>
>>145637196
A side benefit that means fuck all if you're just using it because it proc'd and don't actually need it. It isn't about MP management, it's about adding more to the "instant cast" flavor to AST that it's lacking on benefic 2 procs for no reason.
>>
>>145636038
Just remove Cleric Stance from SCH altogether.

>>145637448

>>145636813
>>145636859

I've never had the ability to try AST but I have been interested in it. WHM I have used more than once in leveling my SCH and perhaps I have not gotten far enough with WHM but it seems relatively easy in comparison to something like SCH. I was doing the last two dungeons of the msq and kind of choked due to there being so many different people on the list at once and not being sure of who I should prioritize healing. The eight man thing is going to take getting used to, but so far I see SCH as a fun class in comparison to WHM.

I am looking forward to giving AST a try for the first time as well.

The learning curve to memorize the fight would be too much for a lot of healers if tanks were capable of dropping dead within the window of a server tick.

If autos were simply doubled in speed you'd need both healers to babysit the tank while managing MP/trying not to overheal, which is kind of what healing in an RPG is supposed to be.

How come Yoshi P tours shit servers like Exodus & Behemoth but never graces those of us at the Quicksand on Balmung with his presence?

Those of us on Balmung can show Yoshida-san a whole new World.
