Opposition Céleste

[Cynfael]

Hello,

I just wanted to know why Celestial Opposition can't be used to change Astro stance during fight.
it wasn't meant to be like this?

I think this would give more interest in this skill, especially with such a name which implies an opposition (the opposite stance).

I don't think it would have been OP, but something really unique and with more complexity.
The only change they need to do with this idea is the fact that we can't stack our own stances between them, but only with another astrologian. It will avoid abuse with shield+regen effect during stance change.

I don't think I'd want a stance-changing skill tied to another mechanic (the stun + buff extension). Granted, neither of those effects are earth-shattering, but it would be a shame not to be able to utilize them at times that you really don't want to swap your stance.

But it's precisely what would have been the complexity of the job, know when to change and use the skill.

The problem is that you might not need or want to change your Sect (e.g. if you are paired with a SCH, you probably don't want to stray from Diurnal). That turns the skill into a noob trap since you would presumably be stuck in your new stance until using CO again.

I would like it to give us a "buff" that lasts some seconds and allow us to switch stances during battle for its duration.
Or maybe...debuff enemies in the AOE, or add a healing effect to it, or a regen(if in diurnal) and a strong barrier(if in nocturnal) or reset Draw's CD or add a "buff" that will reduce Draw's recast timer by X seconds for its duration, or reset the current cards durations i don't know, something truly reliable.
I just seriously hate the fact that my lv 60 skill, my "ultimate skill", is an aoe stun with a 5 second addition to my buffs when almost all jobs got some amazing 60 skills (Dissipation is an exception sadly) ¬¬ 5 seconds won't give us THAT significant help.

BUT i'm pretty sure SE is not finished with AST yet, AND i'm cool with how AST works now, it feels way, WAY better compared to 3.0-3.5 AST.

I still hope CO will be changed somehow though >_> <_<
