Scholar and Healing (ignoring the dps aspect)

I was blown away with how bad SCH was and am finishing leveling AST to 70 atm... it was sad to find out that AST felt as powerful at 61 based on pure numbers AND only has 60% of the mana useage as scholar's key heals. It's mind boggling to me that SCH single target heal had the cost increased to more than others big AOE heals AND the mana regen was pretty darn nerfed too. You can heal bomb to your hearts content as AST and just drop the right combo of cards/lucid dreaming and extend the duration of BOTH with celestial opposition and watch your mana bar nearly instantly fill to full. Oh well!

Yes, CU is currently canceled by any movement whatsoever, including turning in place, but once you train yourself to let go of the mouse button while you're waiting for it to apply the HoT, you're good to go. I also remember hearing that they had accepted this as a possible bug, so we may see a fix.

Welcome to most Spire/Spear and Minor Arcana, can all be good just... Expand, Extend, Balance/Arrow > Bole/Ewer are better.

Ya, I was doing that quick handss off thing already before I even realized it was added, I wonder if it was just an easy way to solve a spinny Passage of Arms, then passed to other channeled abilities.
