    - The Astral/Umbral buffs are much too short to be used as baseline requirements in BOTH the casting of Fire IV/Blizzard IV AND for refreshing Enochian. Both our major damage dealer and our buff maintenance are tied into the same 10 second window. This is not enough time to account for the myriad of raid possibilities and results in overly punishing gameplay when those inevitable mechanics occur. It's even more egregious when half of your window is already committed to fulfilling the hard casting of 2 spells and their gcds in order to just refresh Enochian. This alone leaves little other time for any mistakes or mechanics.

    - No room for creativity or other spell casts due to the forced restrictiveness of Enochian and Astral/Umbral timers. The way the timers work out, there's an extremely strict cycle in which you can deal damage and maintain your buff. This leaves little to no room for any other spells or utility without risking possible downtime.
