How could you do this to AST?

[ItMe]

I think Time Dilation should come back myself. I think having the one cooldown that you either use to extend someone's burst phase or used defensively to extend regens on a player could have the potential to give the class just the right amount of flavor.

Careful there.
The idea of AST messing with the timers / skills of different jobs is dangerous.
Let's not flirt with going back to the days where Nin or Brd (or any job) were so useful they were basically auto include in comps.
Let's not go back to the days when you're expected to play certain combinations of classes in high end content.

Time magic resetting your dots like Brd does with Iron Jaws is one thing...

Using it to basically recast your HoTs is one thing...

Extending the duration of Nin's Trick Attack or Smn's Phoenix Trance is another.
