Astrologian "BUFFS"

Yes, it's a good start but we're a bit far from how AST should be. We still have a lvl60 ability that sounds more or less like WTF, and a bubble that doesn't nerf you but it's not so worth because you can't act. Maybe they wanted to think how they should adjust it because they don't know atm...

This is likely the case. I look at it this way: They've been very careful with their buffs/nerfs, and all of them have left the jobs in question in rather good states even if the players disagree sometimes. They've shown repeatedly that they do listen to community feedback (this entire game is a testament to that) and that they're willing to make smart changes to jobs rather than only adjusting numbers to get the desired effect. Astrologian isn't going to be kept out in the cold if that's where it's being left by the players - it'll receive the adjustments it needs.

Better to do it carefully than to apply a sloppy bandaid that leaves a mark.

While i am also disappointed at CU changes(but very happy with other changes), i felt like CU's intended purpose was always for phase transition. In Diurnal it allows you to catch a breath and regen mana, all the while bring party back up from phase transist damage.

Yes, but if you consider for example A1, you can channel CU while the bosses are falling down again during the transition. The problem is: you have to run in position and then channel it, so it's not very comfortable...
