    Theres that and now the lore for Astro no longer makes sense. Every card had it's own lore. Now it's all the same
    Old cards were just as braindead and only gave the illusion of choice. You just had to fish for aoe balance (first best) or other aoe dps buffs (spear or arrow). Other cards were either useless (bole) or royal road fodder.
    At least now they can balance jobs depending on a predictable rdps contribution provided by cards.

    Even if you "fIsHeD FoR BaLaNcE AnYwAy" at the very least the old system was engaging and your "useles cards" are what made the atk ones work, I have literally fallen sleep while healing with how boring AST has become.

    I can't wait for next expansion when they even notice there is no point of that ranged / melee nonsense and just make it a single target 30s cooldown buff and then a 2m party damage buff without any bs "mechanic" since that's all those are, seals are brain dead and not like getting whatever makes any difference.

    Not jut cards, would have killed them to let Horoscope detonate on time out, what about a better MP management.
