The problem with Aetherflow Logic....

[LegoTechnic]

It wasn't as much of an issue for SCH, but more for SMN who would pop Aetherflow and then need about a minute to reset the cooldown for an optimal DPS opener. SCH could abuse pre-stacks as well for three free energy drains or whatever at the start, but with the aetherflow cooldown trait it wasn't as long a wait. Granted now that SMN doesn't even have aetherflow anymore and SCHs can't Energy Drain to save their sanity none of that matters, so there's not really any good reason to keep this change. What are we going to do, overheal with more lustrates at the start? Savage would need to start with multi tank-busters right from the get-go.

But that's why they did it; to stop opener waiting. It wouldn't be so bad really, except everything else they did exacerbated it.
