Thread: First week of 5.05, healer performance for E4S

I have a feeling the lack of Astrologian here is because of what was seen before Shadowbringers release, and as EaMett has said, what people had decided to main because of that. Anyone who avoided playing Astro because of potency and numbers will soon be catching back up and switching if that's all they cared about.

I was main Astrologian (albeit for very little because I'm fairly new) and switched to Dancer because they pretty much removed the RNG and flavor and gave it to the Dancer, whom also has the support aspect. Sucks because I want to heal, but am kind of realizing now that those cards carried a lot of my enjoyment for the class, along with Earthly Star and the old Celestial Opposition/Time Dilation (and somewhat Horoscope now). The cards felt like a fun, unique thing in a genre that can feel very bland and trite these days.

With the 5.05 buffs I haven't felt weak but the cards are a chore now, because using any particular card just amounts to some damage. Until they stop being a chore and I can actually be excited to use them, Astro will more than likely stay as a secondary job for me, even if it becomes the new hotness from buffs.
