    Bane and miasma on scholar, lv50 blm on white mage and nascent flash on sage isn’t a huge request. Maybe they could give sage a low potency forced crit that can be cast instead if more healing is needed but it’s not worth hardcasting heals yet?
    you missed astrologian. 1 button dps sucked on astro even back when the cards were fun. Msq, fates, sidequests etc exist too.

    I didn't think it sucked. I guess I wouldn't mind one extra dot or DPS button as HW/SB AST, but it certainly felt unique compared to WHM and SCH. Now WHM/SCH/SGE all play like HW/SB AST without cards, while current AST plays like flaccid bacon.

    If we're going back to SB AST's kit, I think a cool idea for a rotation would be oGCDs with a button that can reduce their cooldowns by half, kinda like the opposite of Time Dilation, taking the idea of PvP AST Double Cast Malefic. For example, there could be 2 damage oGCDs with 30s and 45s cooldown respectively, and a button (could be called Quick or Haste, from FFT?) on a 90s cooldown that reduces the cooldown of those two oGCDs and Earthly Star by 30s. Just throwing ideas out there, but in general I think oGCDs fit SB AST well since it was the only one with a 1.5s nuke.
