The changes to Astrologian are upsetting

[Kissune]

Not a troll. Just an astro player since heavensward. Astro seems insane in DT. The 2m meta is going to be busier than we knew at the live letter which is pretty good considering ASTRO's APM only went down by 1 with the card c hanges but the burst is getting another action and then we get another OGCD mitigation. As long as astro's potencies are on par with other healers then astro is going to not only be insanely fun to play, but it's going to be a powerhouse among healers.

'Only went down by 1' my god you actually just do not play astro.

We have playx2, draw, lord, divi, divi follow up. 20s to do 6 weaves. Compared to EW where we had... drawx2, lightspeed, playx3, divi, dyne, minor arcana as the barest of minimum. That's 8. Add in 2 potential redraws, 2 potential lords, and a potential second dyne and suddenly its pretty obvious you dont know what you're talking about. Unless you mean overall actions per minute including the new cards in which case... I don't consider tossing out random heals just to pad apm to actually count, and it's weird if you do. You are literally deluding yourself into thinking white mage with a bootleg aetherflow is something new and unique just bc you think wasting single target heals on tanks who won't and haven't needed them is good design and definitely different from what literally any other healer does. Bc I got a news flash for you. If all the ST stuff AST has is actually required, white mages will not be able to clear. Meaning that either A. They're irrelevant buttons bc WHM can always make do with less anyways, or B. SQ miraculously decided to make the community favourite healer unplayable out of nowhere. Incredible the level of delusion you are under. It's almost sad to see, if you weren't so arrogant about it.
