I believe it is only 1 card now (the wording implies get 1 card of a seal you don't have unless have all 3 then it gives a random card)which makes the opener more consistent but lowers rDPS by a fair bit too.

If however it remains 3 cards, welp, CONTROLLER ISSUES REMAIN AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED! , which I would hope SE would've done since it has been around since 5.0.

My concern is how it will affect the consistency of divination in ast's opener.

Because of how you can't gain a seal unless you or your target has already hit something, if the game fails to register that first seal, div will be off kilter from the rest of the parties buff window for the entirety of a fight. (unless you hold it til the next window which is equally terrible)

On top of that, to have div ready for your opener, the party would need to wait to let ast's draw come off cd, which isn't very common outside of an organised party

As far as controller issues, I can't say much. I'ma controller user (play on console), but i've never personally felt taxed by Sleeve draw

This ^ all of this. I play cross platform started on PlayStation and still use controller (though am learning in and mouse) I had no issue with target selecting on controller. You have to do it with single target heals etc anyway so why would it be an issue?
