astrologian minor arcana broken?

[astrosadge]

so ever since they merged arcana + crown play into 1 button, its now impossible to track the cooldown of arcana while you have a card drawn which basically means that i get punished for holding a card...?

theres no way that this design choice was actually thought through right?

anyone else notice this issue?

[Sebazy]

You'd think the cooldown would continue to show on the hotbar whilst the new card was drawn.

But then SE would need to actually pay attention to healer stuff to realise that.

Should I tap the sign again?

=(

[astrosadge]

they use the solution for the regular draw already so im unsure why its put into place like this on the minor arcana, either way its really hard to play without knowing the cooldown and i feel myself dropping cards way earlier than i should be to not overcap them :/

[TakumiHarada]

Not only can you not track the cooldown, but also you can't overwrite a useless lady in lower-end contents where it's just an overheal, so you're forced to use up 1 weaving slot.

[Jey_S]

it's so painful when you use the minor card and realize your minor arcana is already cooldown over
honestly that is just a annoying job adjustment, obstruct your damage/healing resource management

[Gemina]

I'm just over here thinking with the deletion of Crown Play, they got it half right. Just have one more half to nuke and we're good in this regard.

[Tlamila]

Yeah it seems that they just made more trouble this this adjustement. Can't see cooldown, can't overwrite useless arcanas, can't double weave .
I'd rather have the old system back.

They clearly didn't let that healer who got too good at the role test the changes

[Rein_eon_Osborne]

So I’ve only tested all healers except SGE (will get on to that later..) a while ago.. Such an oversight, they really did not test these changes themselves did they? Or rather, they did but had this “This oughta be good for AST who got 1 Lady & wanna keep it just in case :3c”-thought running in their head.

I mean I get it, 1 less button to worry about but they could’ve added the cooldown timer to the gauge if they can’t really implement it to the hotbar for whatever reason.

they could’ve added the cooldown timer to the gauge if they can’t really implement it to the hotbar for whatever reason.

This would defintiely be a welcomed addition to the job HUD, although, I imagined that they would have considered something like this when consolidating the skills together in the first place.

Feels like they just copied over the function of how it was in previous expansions, but we didn't have to track Minor Arcana as it had a 1 second recast and was limited in use due to the fact that it was a way of converting a currently drawn card into a Lord/Lady, rather than pulling one out of thin air on an independant timer.

Seems like they forgot to consider that part.
