about AST rework

[Casti_EL]

I'm actually quite pleasantly surprised by the changes. Having played AST in HW (which you had to memorise every card and it's effect, plus deal with the RNG draw, and also switch between Pure and Shield healer styles) and seeing the simplification that happened to it afterwards I as worried it would be simplified even further.

Personally I like AST having some more difficulty to it, it makes it a more engaging class (IMO) - granted the RNG is gone, which I found both fun and frustrating in equal measures (especially when you keep drawing melee dps cards and your party consists of all ranged dps, or vice versa) but I can see me sticking with it come Dawntrail (I was originally thinking of switching when they originally announced a rework).

(That said, I still prefer the overall job designs pre-SB and really hoping SE look to go back to that style come 8.0)

Also yeah, have to agree that Macro'ing the card play using mouseover is an extremely useful option and highly recommend (especially if you have an MMO mouse).
