supervirus more impactful than proshell

Someone must've been looking at the cards. How can we know that they have an edge as a supportive healer without first fully understanding and knowing what the Astrologian is bringing to the table? Yeah, ok, we've seen a few spells, but so far no potencies or anything else related to their toolkit.

It's been mentioned in a live stream that they have less DPS potential than Scholar and White mage. Which is pretty much what Scholars do when they're not healing. There's no specifics yet whether the card abilities eat away on their cooldown locks. Even if it did, you simply have to identify the right windows to draw cards and/or weave it in with the instant healing ability.

edit: Also, it's based on how current meta works. Unless Astrologian healing output is severely weaker than White Mage and Astrologian - Which I've mentioned in another post -, Astrologian is more suitable for the main healer role rather than supportive role. They'll only be drawing cards once every 30-35 seconds and not majority of their GCD on damage spells.

Yes, but DPS doesn't equal support. Where did this idea that support = DPS come from to begin with?
