At least matching and digging for the right seals meant something and gave a decent reward. Minor Arcana also fitted into this and served a purpose in Seal management and Sleeve Draw helped mitigate RNG. It functioned.

Astrodyne is far more boring to me because the seals don't mean anything. You just settle for 2 seals. Sometimes you get 3 but it's only 100 potency worth so who cares. Minor Arcana is just a 250 potency proc every 2 minutes on average. It's definitely a chore, you do it for mana and squeezing an extra percent dps but it feels bad.

I don't think the ShB system was particularly "fun" either, but it's still miles above the rubbish we have now.
