Ast card system change

[Haxaan]

Here's an idea that might satisfy both parties, why not just bring back the old cards? All the cards have their original buffs now except there's no balance. So you have to use the bole for defence buff, spear for crit, etc. The ewer now gives 30 sec mana buff so you can use it on yourself to help with mana regen and give the spire a new effect like it gives a mini regen to a play for 15 seconds or something OR its the old lady of crowns effect.

All of the old effects of ast cards would finally see more use this xpac because of how much more demanding healing is over just dealing dmg as healers. The old cards would be so amazing to use in this content. Think about how useful a bole would be for the tank in dungeons for instance.

Ok so each card you use drops a random seal so you can for example get an arrow with a sun seal vs a spear with a moon seal the next time. You can still use draw how it is now to help with getting the right seals.You can store one card for later usage with a certain seal but no shuffling or royal roading anything those are gone forever and that would help go against preloading stuff for raids too. Now when you get all three seals this way you unlock an aoe balance for 30 seconds!
I think this way we get to keep some of the new card changes, but keep the flavor and originality of the AST card system. What do you all think of this idea?

I am 100% ok with this. I was actually thinking the same thing the other day. Since Balance can be so "mandatory", why not make it only available once every Divination cd. This would bring the other cards back, make them useful again, and we would know that no matter what cards we pull, we will be able to do an aoe balance every few minutes. I really hope they fix the card system because it is a mess the way it is and literally spits on the previous job quest lore for the cards.
