Astrologian is a very strange healing class below level 30. In that range we have exactly three possible heals; Benific that costs "meh" and heals for "meh", Benific II that heals for "kay" and cost "yikes" or ED that costs nothing and becomes extremely overpowered the closer that the tank gets to death!
ED is also instant cast, which means that you can literally snooze in cleric stance until the tank hits 15% health then jam stance swap + ED (both instant cast and off the GCD) and heal them fully for free.
I understand that it looks super scary but you are actually much safer than you would be with a conjuror, who needs to weave long cast time heals into their dps.
Edit: Also in those rare cases where tank health drops faster than ED's cooldown, AST just needs to use Lightspeed+ BenificII+ BenificII to achieve the same amount of healing with three instant spells and an MP hit. So there is very little danger even if a tank were to never touch their cooldowns, which has happened to me on more than one occasion at that level. >.<
