Dude execution is what this game is about lol.

I don't play AST because the Bole has some lore b.s. or w/e. I play AST because of how it feels to play.

"Play healer only for training dummies."

Wow pal. I guess Savage healing doesn't count then, the only content I haven't attempted as healer is Ultimate, but that's because I don't devote my time in ultimate to healing, I reserve tanking and melee for that.

What I'm saying is that afflatus does get used... it has to be...it's how WHM was built, to sacrifice a gcd of damage for movement, or for healing and building up to a misery to use for another weave slot and to recoup some damage lost, especially if it crits.

Y'all want these clunky ass abilities back that don't really make sense to have really. You need to check your condescending attitude my dude.

Time dialation? Really? It is just a fun niche little skill in 4.x that had some use for extending regens on a tank mostly. The old cards were garbage.

"The new cards are drained of personality", no life, no character.... dude... it gives your party a constant stream of damage buffs that are guaranteed on the dps players, like what?

But no, play AST because in the JOB story quest (lmfao) it said something cute about Spire or whatever lol. Okay.

My comment about WHM was that it's very design is to sacrifice damage for healing, whereas on SCH and AST, you do not really have to do those things given your ability to weave at will or take a very minor loss if you have an energy drain to spare. WHM does not get this consideration and you must give up damage for healing, and has horrible clipping issues unless you burn a lily and need it, and sometimes you just don't and overheal for nothing just to weave.

"Flavor and Fun" LOL. Punishing rng of getting spire five times in a row. Okay. Yeah buddy you keep your fun in the past, I'll keep the actual good, functioning, useful cards.

You still have Royal Road giving out an aoe buff... it's called divination lol. You build the cards to the aoe form of the card buff.

You get divination as much as you would get an AoE Balance pretty much. Unless you were blessed with RNG.
