Good guide!
Give me back my 3x redraw. Anyway, thanks for the guide, im not ast main, but ast is my favorite healer until i was surprised I couldn’t find my 3x redraw. RNG is so strong here.
This has been so informative! Thanks for walking through each skill and different scenarios when to use them for 🙂 Would you be able to include the macro list mentioned in the video?
This is the best AST guide I’ve come across, thank you!
This is by far the best Astro guide ive seen so far ty!
I've been a WHM main since 2.2 and I decided to level AST through Endwalker… oh boy, the stress of learning a new job, maintaining dps AND keeping seven other people alive!
General healing tips (and some AST specific tips) for anyone planning on raiding as a healer. Every GCD heal you do (Benefic/Helios) is a DPS loss. Anytime you need to GCD spot heal a DPS that gets hit by a mechanic or a Tank that doesn't mitigate properly is a straight up DPS loss. Every time you need to Benefic II because you're out of Essential Dignity charges, that's a Malefic you lose for dps. You don't have to always enhance Horoscope if the lower potency heal is all you need. Raiding as an AST is mostly drawing on cooldown and Earthly Star on cooldown (this is AFTER you prog, they are not as prog friendly as its Pure healer counterpart WHM). The mechanics are paced so that Earthly Star will heal the party AND provide DPS. You just need to figure out when you star Pre-pull. Some raids want you to Star at 10/7/5/3 seconds, it will line up with the first raidwide and then with every other raidwide down the road, you have a whole 10 second window and a few seconds of drifting to make sure it's doing a huge heal and still doing damage.
