Yeah giving a chain rezzing red mage a mana card is nice but let's be real with ourselves. That rarely happens, and it still relies on you nailing the 1/6 chance of drawing it. I just as often meet red mages that don't even have verraise on their bar. With dps cards, I can at least put it on someone doing some semblance of damage. But hey, if you like having abilities that you just burn for mana and basically nothing else, why not play sage?
I really think you are missing a big chunk of the perception of power of a class, it’s why the current cards are so bad. Because you can’t feel anything from them, utility gives you an immediate and powerful feeling response when you get it right

I’d rather once in a while use a newer perfectly over perusing FF logs to tell me my cards meant we killed the boss 2.8 seconds faster

AST’s entire power fantasy is hot garbage at the moment and if I want buttons for mana that are pointless I’ll press astroydyne
