Raiders to get ahold of it. For some reason I can't quite describe, it already disappoints me that videos are already being made, talking about 'meta' and 'optimal rotations'.
What I'm not excited for, is for them to get a hold of it and start whining that it's 'tOo cOmPlICaTeD' or something of some such nature, and for them to beg for Sage to be dumbed down and simplified.
I want this complexity I'm seeing. I WANT this level of thought in a kit.
What?

Some raiders took issue with the old Spear and Arrow cards, but the reasoning behind their dislike for these two cards was actually pretty sound. Extreme and upwards boils down to memorising a rotation for the fight. These two cards could throw people's cool downs and rotations out of sync, potentially causing a pretty hefty DPS loss if they missed a burst window.

You do realise that Sleeve draw appears to have gone, as has any of the 'complexity' around Divination. And that's before we even mention Noct Stance.

Wake up and realise it's not raiders that are pushing to dumb down healers. Rather it's SE diluting the role down to the point where the hardest part of clearing casual content is keeping up with your tank.
