Its only replaced during the card preparation just like DNC step replacing their dps button.
After using the card, the button will be back to original dps button.
So we dont need additional separated button for card.
Also the card CD is around 1 sec just like DNC step CD.
Like I said before, unless the cards provide enough rDPS gain to offset the GCDs that the AST loses prepping the cards, then your system will not be worth it. DNC's Standard and Technical are worth the time they spend not attacking because the hit of Standard Finish and Technical Finish have a high enough potency on their own, plus the rDPS gains the Dance Partner and the raid earn from the ability.

That said, I prefer the weaving between attacking GCDs instead of turning a GCD into a card. I feel like that will slow the job down and take away from the busyness that I so loved about AST when I picked it up back in HW.

DNC steps are also 1.5s per step. Not 1s.
