You don't want it to be over powered, but you also don't want it to be too weak. CS, to me, is perfect. It has no flaws in any way. So to try and make something similar but completely different will be really hard for SE to pull off. That's my thoughts on it anyway.
Indeed, that's why I'm looking forward to seeing what will be done. If S-E gives AST the right tools, they'll be able to get a high uptime of popular buffs like Corsairs were able to in XI. It'll be a hard thing to balance, but I imagine it'll keep the AST quite busy with this and healing duties.

Can't wait to see the move list released.
