    It's hyperbole, but highlights a controller issue where you're jumping around the controller quite a lot in quick succession, the impression being "if you constantly do this you'll give yourself carpal tunnel" but hyperbole because I've not heard of it /actually/ happening to anybody, but it is a problem if you find yourself having to do it, it can be awkward and uncomfortable, it's a problem SMN and NIN had in 5.0 and SE corrected it very quickly. Whilst you can play AST without the problem, when you're trying to optimise your cards, it is an issue.

    Fair point, in which case, would reducing the recast of Draw be better instead? Maybe to 45 or 30 seconds.

    Draw currently already has a 30 second recast.

    Draw is already 30 seconds. I think a simpler change is to give Sleeve Draw two charges. This guarantees a three Seal Div at the beginning as you'll Draw, Sleeve x2 and bam. You're done. Maybe still bringing the CD down to 120 or you could go with Div resetting a single charge.
