When you have your 3 seals, you can switch to Crown cards, so it's 8% dmg up every 30 seconds.
(i'm assuming you use redraw and sleeve draw to make sure the proper person has the proper card)
Every 3 minutes the party has 6% dmg up.


WHM : has wings.

you see where I'm going? Sure, it seems AST cards have a lower potency than the 4.0 version, but any buff is better than no buff at all. And healing potencies of AST have nothing to be ashamed of, compared to WHM.

I'm pretty sure "meta comps" will still be AST / SCH
Or, you could just carry 2 Scholars, or two WHM's, or one of each, and have everyone in your raid/static/group bring along a basic food item that gives +8% Direct damage as its bonus, and you have a 60m Astro-buff in your pocket that persist through deaths.
