    Regardless of OP's reason, they aren't wrong... Gemshine and Precious Brilliance serve the same function as Ruin/Astral Impulse/Fountain of Fire and Outburst/Astral Flare/Brand of Purgatory.

    I have yet to run into a situation where you would chose to cast Ruin instead of a Gemshine when it's active with a Rite. Has anyone else? I haven't run any low level stuff on summoner so perhaps there is a reason for their choice in this earlier on?

    If you're in Ifrit and need a slightly shorter cast time, but you only have room for 1 maybe 2 Ruins per minute sooo lol. And it's not like delaying Rites for an AST card buff is a thing. Afaik it's just so you're not hitting the same two buttons as much.
