My issue with AST.

[Rivxkobe]

Collective Unconscious won’t ever get stronger because that would mean having to channel it which nobody would ever do.

Lmao wut

By "channel" do you mean spending time to cast it instead of it going out instantly? Unlike Sacred Soil and Asylum which are both stronger than CU and targeted AoEs?

You realize that currently even if it is just a buffed Regen without Damage midigation no one would use it still right? The issue with it is that it is insanely weak for the size and restrictions it puts on the AST. If they buffed its heal but kept everything else as is now it still might not be used that often.

The fact that it requires the AST to position in a good spot and take a full GCD to use effectively (in most situations) AND holds the AST in place means it needs to be buffed. Compare it to Sacred Soil and Aslyum that are used, basically, on CD and there is no way you can say its even close to OP.

Its best used when it ticks and you can cancel it quickly. But this relies on server ticks and if/when your party gets hit by it.
