AST Wishlist for 5.0

[Seraphor]

Thank you! Card cooldowns would definitely need to be shorter and balancing done with potencies/effects, which really needs to happen anyway with TP going away. The other benefit with shorter CDs as I mentioned, was that you get more attempts to fish for a specific card for your situation, even if it's slightly less potent for balance.

You'd also have the majority of your kit untied to this, so you're not without options if you just burned a card, so it would possibly enhance instead of crippling high level play.

Only issue I see is coordinating with another AST.
Currently its easy to see what sect they're in and go with the opposite. With this you'd need to be careful not to waste cards by both going 'shield' at the same time.

As for the cards themselves, ive thinking:
Bole and Balance: Shields, same as nocturnal.
Spear and Arrow: Bonus 10% damage reduction.
Spire and Ewer: Regen, same as diurnal.
