Rotations: Making them DIFFERENT

[Raikai]

AST: I honestly have no idea. Maybe it stays as the "nukespam + DoT" thing and has buffs, possibly as GCDs, added to its rotation (since the big request from players in the survey seemed to be more buffing abilities for AST, not more damaging ones); GCD buffs would make the burst more manageable as well, depending on how they were implemented.

Ast should probably stay as it is, in regards to its dps tools because of the cards - as it is already like that, AST feels less boring because although you do 1111211112, you have the card system to keep yourself busy. They could expand that by just making a way for AST to actually use the cards during the 2min meta downtime. Perhaps Divination grants a card buff to everyone instead, so you don't have to save them for that window.

Interesting point if they add a secondary effect to the cards, like movement speed, defensive, regens, so technically it would feel like a "Lucky Strike" during the Divination window while still keeping the dps % support.

The issue with that "lucky strike" is that if you have a mix of effects, half of the ones that you're pointing out are may or may not be useful at a given time, so it's like taking lord/lady but making it worse.

I was gonna write out a whole thing in a new thread while waiting for a big fish, but I had second thoughts and deleted it. Now I feel like I should have kept going

edit: thread made, but all the exact potencies got lost. I'm not doing all the maths again
