Greedy Astro = Best Astro
With all the threads about the fixed needed for astro I decided to give my idea on how to compete with astro as it is now.
We all no SE wanted Astro to be "support" and buff your party members. I think this is wrong as its current state. Lets do a run down on the cards and how they will buff you (as the astro)
{Bole}>[Tank] so you can save mp since they take less dmg
{Arrow} > [Self] increases our spell speed letting us cast faster and make up for less potency vs whm
{Spear} > [Self] Lowers our recast on our mp regen spells aswell as our free heal.
{Ewer} > [Self] MP regen
The only 2 spells that should be used on others is Balance and Spire and only if someone is in dire need of TP. Balance helps for a short while but it seems it helps little with overall dps on boss fights.
So reroll get yourself some buffs maximize astros abilitys use them cards on you!
