Can we please have a source on this info? I'm trying to find it in that journalist's AMA, but I'm not seeing it.

He stated it in his twitch stream, idk the exact time as I watched it live

At 1:18:20 he clearly says there's no cooldown on switching stances.

So I ask again. Source?

Rather he gives a clearer example of why he thinks Astro would be very valuable in battle and goes to say that inside the T13 fight with bahamut you would switch stance. He clearly says the healer could switch stance then aid the other healer in his example.

That's a few moments before your timer btw, but it'd be pretty misleading if he then turned to say well you can't stance switch in battle after using in a form of an example of astro being able to.

I loved reading this article , really provided a lot of extra information..

However I couldn't find anything relating to "you can't change stances mid combat"

Do we have a source that actually states this? I'm reading more sources that don't mention the stance limitations then those that do (currently none). It's a pretty big thing and I doubt people wouldn't be leaving it out if it was an actual limitation.

I've looked but I only found guides putting it in that you can't which.... I know the guides were taking information from others about this so it could easily be a piece of misinformation in there.

Edit: So in the video, it looks like they use a card, barrier heal, attack, do another attack (Which has been assumed to be an AoE I think?) then they use a skill that doesn't attack.... do one more attack and something like a medica. >_>

Well from the pax video he only said that it would have a long cool down in combat, but out of combat you would have no cool down, So the misinformation could start there. Again nothing in letter or videos by SE mention a combat lock on stances. And i dont see why they would mention a long cool down for a out of combat skill.

SCH - 60% Barrier, 40% Cure 0% Regen

AST - 40% Barrier, 40% Cure, 0% Regen, 20% Cards

(Clearly, very rough/poor figures, don't represent actual; merely meant for future illustration)

Astrologian could easily be built to support either two healers effectively (w/o being too OP or UP) or to where duo-Astrologian comps are viable (w/o being too OP or UP).

I have to be up in 3 hours or I'd expound. But please put a little more argument rather than "rawr, impossibru to balance! OP!!"

It's doable, I'm sick of these blanket statements. Sure, my above point doesn't contribute anything yet either... but like I said, up in 3 hours. I'll edit this tomorrow with a hard argument with supporting points, whereas you guys aren't even acting like you'll provide some sort of legitimate credence to your arguments.

Make one fine point if you wish in the meantime, create some credibility. Just saying, 'bu-but if they can do both it'll be either too OP or too UP or won't work in certain comps' is not sufficient. I'll see you tomorrow.
