Actually rather surprised people are advocating an aoe bole on pull, I genuinely don't know of any fights where the outgoing damage so early in the fight justifies bole.
Because of RNG, it's best to utilize the best combos you can do.

Royal Road Balanced/Bole Cards used with time dilation and/or Celestial opposition

Royal Road Arrow/Spear cards when time dilation and/or celestial opposition is on CD

Royal Road Spire/Ewer cards if you don't have an "Ace" in the party.

Otherwise if you just try to stick to balance you're creating a lot of downtime on the buffs for your party when you could use the cards you skipped for your party while you're still waiting for a balance.

Sometimes I draw a lot of balances, sometimes I don't draw any until I reach the boss. Surrender to the RNG ~ Don't fight against it.
