So 5.08 is coming tomorrow, do you expect any changes to AST?

[SaberMaxwell]

But RDM wasn't this weak in SB, and it still had spammable raise, it was even less punishing. This was only 9 weeks ago!

But even so, they could address this by changing Dualcast into "reduces cast times by 5s."
This would mean Verraise would have a minimum 5s cast time with Dualcast, and you'd need Swiftcast to use it effectively, while still being technically better than SMN's Resurrection at 8s.

I'm not disagreeing even a little bit. I absolutely want RDM buffs and a change like that would be beautiful for verraise, but I'm jaded at this point and used to being told that it deserves to be weak because raise and because it's easy to play, and seeing developers indicate through implemented mechanics that they agree.

I don't think major changes will come. Some potencies could be adjusted though...

(Collective Unconscious, I'm thinking of you...)

Maybe in 5.1 we see some changes, like Horoscope activating at the end of timer and Stun bact to Celestial Opposition (please).

Should they just buff CU or add a unique mechanic to it? Such as increasing HoT tick rate or granting haste or maybe a shared damage spread effect?

[KanameYuuki]

Just make CU deploy-able, even with a trait at high levels 7X+ and be done with it. The one skill that was supposed to be homogenized and they didn't, all of the healing domes have 2 benefits so no point on that channeling nonsense.

[RyuDragnier]

If anything, expect to see card buff potencies go up again.

[Crushnight]

No i expect nothing so if something is adjusted it might be a welcome surprise.

[vtndll]

No. I don't think there will be anything.

Clunky card system (especially for console players),

I play on PC but I use a controller and I don't find it clunky at all.

Hmm. I'm not really sure what would even be considered clunky about it.

Doing it fast enough to have divination line up with party buffs, as well as shoot for that 6 percent. It takes some quick fingers to do that. For casual play, it's probably not a big deal, but if you're raiding and shooting for optimization,it's clunky as hell because you have 4 GCDs to do it.

[CupidCrux]

I don't know, I don't fully disagree however there is something about channeling CU that has a power to it. Like the player made a conscious (mind the pun) decision to sit there and do nothing else but create a protective barrier for everyone to gather in. This current pop and run isn't very...collective. Heck even Yshtola and the WHM(? cant think of her name now) from Gridania channel and everyone gathers. I wouldn't mind if you channel and it gets stronger the longer you hold it, or rather since it's collective the stronger more people that enter the bubble. That might be a coding nightmare but meh, not our job lol
