I thought I would enjoy them after spending more time, but I just don't. They're very unsatisfying and even if they are or are not better or more consistent than the previous cards, they're simply not as fun to use. Giving BLMs Enhanced Arrows or BRDs/MNKs extended Spears was very enjoyable when you weren't just fishing for AoE Balance non-stop, which was never necessary even in Ultimate difficulty. Getting a 2% bonus for achieving three different seals feels incredibly lackluster, and the seal order is annoying because despite lore reasons, the old Royal Road combinations make me think Balance/Bole, Arrow/Spear, and Ewer/Spire. Even how the seals come in from right to left is annoying.

I really miss the old cards. AST was a lot more fun then.
