    I'm guessing it won't be major/minor arcana as theres nothing busy about that.

    The only thing busy about AST is weaving the targetting of a party member and playing on them.

    We literally do that as often as casting combust. If theres anything to be considered "busy" about AST what else could it possibly mean?

    the burst windows? theyre like 6 double weaves in a row and they hog up all the uses of lightspeed. i really disliked the trick attack change because before i could give an extra card at the 1 minute mark to someone to make the reopener a bit easier on myself without it being too big of a dps loss, but now im pretty much obligated to save all 3 cards for the 2 min burst. i really dislike draw having charges because of this side-effect.

    and lightspeed could use a cd reduction + charges since divination hoards up all the uses anyways

    Yeah but the targetting too, if you factor that in, can be very busy.
    Personally I have macro keys that auto-target last enemy before casting dot/nuke (not ingame macros), and have 8 play macros that cast on party slots without targetting them.
    IF someone were to play ast without any assistance, it can be very very busy when factoring in manual targetting, just looking at actions user has to perform.

    That’s what I mean by draw/play being what is truly busy

    Nuke
    Draw
    Look at card
    Nuke
    Target correct dps
    Play
    Target last enemy
    Nuke

    Do the card buffs (6% on a single player...assuming optimal play) even make up for the lack of personal DPS?
